when compiling the new ghc pre-releases made my gcc 2.95.3 die with "internal compiler error", I tried to compile it with gcc 3.4.3 (or rather, I thought it compiled with 3.4.1, and when that died, compiled+installed gcc 3.4.3, tried again, say it die again and only then noticed it was actually still using 2.95.3 ;) but had quite some difficulty to actually get it to compile with, in my case, /usr/local/bin/gcc3
When using the following command-line
CC=gcc3 CXX=g++3 nice ./configure --enable-hopengl --prefix=/var/tmp/ghc --with-gcc=/usr/local/bin/gcc3
stage1 still used gcc 2.95.3 to compile stage2 (okay, for --with-gcc that's documented)
Really? --with-gcc should set the gcc for stage1, AFAIK. Is there a bug here? I've noticed gcc 2.95 crashing on my FreeBSD box too. I should look into whether there's a workaround, otherwise we're hosed on FreeBSD 4.x. Cheers, Simon
