Just a minor gripe. I wanted to increase the default heap size, so just to be on the safe side I cleaned up the subdirectories created by "install", then did"gmake clean", run "config" with the new parameter and tried to build again:
In fact, all you needed to do was to re-run configure with the new heapsize parameter, then `make runtime'. However, I guess this is not clear from the documentation.
time gmake all gmake: *** No rule to make target `src/compiler98/*.hc', needed by `targets/ix86-OpenBSD/compiler-gcc'. Stop.
I had to import the entire tar file again. Could it be that "clean" was a bit too eager? Or not eager enough?
Yes, `make clean' deletes many of the .hc files that are needed to build with gcc. Arguably this is too eager, and should only be done by `make realclean'. Regards, Malcolm
