I checked it. It's gcc 2.96, indeed. I'm very surprized that 2.95 works
and 2.96 would not.
It's a very funny, error, too. It compiles _lots_of_ files but with
/fs/proc/array.c, procedure proc_pid_stat() it gets into trouble.
Obviously a compiler error, as it shows part of the "register
clobbering" list. The problem might be that there are variables that are
called like the processor registers (esp and eip).
Where can I get another version of gcc to be installed on a ReadHat
distribution ?

I'd be surprised if RedHat hadn't something on their server(s) as well.

Source process.

I'm very fond of their efforts. For example, it's quite a long time since
a Windows machine I used didn't get Cygwin installed very soon; it's the
simplest way to make Windows usable, IMHO.

2.96 versions for RH). I'm afraid of doing a pure GNU installation :-(
Thanks

Just read the documentation and do exactly what it tells you to do. The only
configuration parameter I usually set is --prefix to prevent the installation
procedure from overwriting the standard gcc.
And then there are nice people over at the gnu.* groups.

OK, so I'll try the gcc-3.2.2-5.i386.rpm
Thanks, -Michael
 

Confusing: 3.2.2-5 for RH9, 3.2-7 for RH8
Are they not usable on the other system ?

You could try running them on different systems,
but don't be suprised if all hell breaks loose.

The last 2.x releases of gcc were 2.95.x. I'm sure that you can download the
sources from the mirrors mentioned at gcc.gnu.org. If your distribution is
based on what RedHat called 2.96, using 2.95.x will be more likely to give
you success than 3.2.2 (or any other 3.x release) if you want to interface
libraries that come with that distribution. OTOH, if you don't care about
that and want to have an up-to-date C++ compiler, I'd suggest you use the
latest stable 3.x release.
 

I tried to install gcc 3 but the RPM claimed that it would need a lot of
additional stuff.
Thanks, but I think I'll give up for the moment.
