Hi,

I thought this might be related to the problem I had with the gcc-2.95.2-2
source tar ball, so am posting some details.  I'm basically wanting to build
gcc on my machiine as a learning exercise and to check that all is set up
correctly.  Though with the hassel I'm having I am near to giving up and
being satisfied with the builds I've had success with.  If any one has
suggestions or would like to see more specific information let me know.

(see prior posts Re: untarring gcc-2.95.2-2 (howto use md5 ?) for details
about the links in the tar ball)

Taking Chris and Chucks advice I manually created libiberty
(/src/gcc-2.95.2-2/libiberty), then unpacked the src.gz and got one error
(note the /src and /obj are binary mounts):

***************

/src $ tar xzf gcc-2.95.2-2-src.tar.gz
tar: gcc-2.95.2-2/libiberty: Could not create symlink to
`../common/libiberty':
Function not implemented
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

/src $ cd /obj/gcc-2.95.2-2

/obj/gcc-2.95.2-2 $
/src/gcc-2.95.2-2/configure --prefix=/usr --host=i686-pc-cy
gwin32 --build=i686-pc-cygwin32

< output cut - all seemed to go ok, but obviously not true >

/obj/gcc-2.95.2-2 $ make

< some output cut >

Any suggestions appreciated, if you'd like more specific output/diagnostics
run just let me know and I'll be happy to run them, and forward the results.

TIA
