To: freebsd-hackers@FreeBSD.ORG Message-id: <19991113030626.A659@frolic.no-support.loc> MIME-version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0i Content-type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-transfer-encoding: quoted-printable Sender: owner-freebsd-hackers@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, as it seems that egcs will be *the* C-compiler in FreeBSD4.x I would like to use it in -STABLE, too. There are at least two ports for egcs: lang/egcs and lang/gcc-devel. I want to use a version that is likely to be used in the first release of 4.x, or---at least---the version that is most compatible according to the user interface. Looking at the patches of the ports, there are some changes to the gcc user interface opposed to the 3.x old gcc-2.7.x. (e.g. no -R any more, why?). Which egcs would you recommend, if I want to minimize the hassle to switch from that egcs to the FreeBSD4.x native egcs? Both ports don't seem to fix that ${tooldir} crap. How is this handled in 4.x?
