Frank,
Reading specs from
/usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/sparc-sun-solaris2.6/2.95.3/specs
gpc version 20010924, based on 2.95.3 20010315 (release)
This *might* also be a difference between the backend versions. If you can, please try to build GPC 20010924 with gcc-2.8.1 to see if that works (that's what I'm using, so it would explain why it works for me).
Thanks for that suggestion (and the subsequent private email help about the build). Indeed this has fixed the problem for me - so it appears to be a GCC problem as opposed to GPC.
Thus, I can now continue with my new:-
gpc -v Reading specs from /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/sparc-sun-solaris2.6/2.8.1/specs gpc version 20010924, based on gcc-2.8.1
Is there anything I should do to notify anyone about the GCC problem or should it get picked up from this mailing list anyway?
Cheers, Martin.
