According to R. P. C. Rodgers, M.D.:

[...] I have just briefly tried to build your latest gpc with gcc 2.7.2 with the GNU f77 patches applied. This results in an altered version for gcc of "2.7.2.f.1" which the gpc configuration file rejects as an inappropriate version. Do you have any plans to accommodate the simultaneous installation of f77 and Pascal?

We are working on merging Pascal into the GCC main distribution line. Once this is complete, you can install GNU Pascal together with GCC typing a command like `make LANGUAGES="C Pascal"'. Then all GNU Pascal patches will already be in the GCC source; additional GNU f77 patches should not spoil them, so it will probably work.

And in case the f77 team and others are working on similar projects, it can become `make LANGUAGES="C C++ Objective-C Pascal Fortran Ada Basic Foo Bar"', one day ... (-:

Any suggested work-arounds for my situation?

Recently, Nils Bokermann sent a diff to this list which contains the necessary changes to `toplev.c'. We will include it into the GPC supplementary distribution (i.e. FAQ, WWW home page etc.), soon.

Hope this helps,

Peter

Hello!

If trying to build the gpc-2.0 with the gcc-2.7.2.1 with the GNU Fortran enabled, will not run. There are some problems with the file toplev.c. Here is a simple diff, which worked at mine.

It's from the patch which came with GNU Fortran.
