He is probably trying to build gcc 2.7.2.2 , already having gcc 2.7.2.1 binaries. FWIW : Do you know if the "DJ cooked version" actually compiles out of the package , or are you simply saying that it *should* ? I tried unpacking v2gnu/gcc2721s.zip and compiling it more or less just for fun. First attempt , "make" crashed with an out of memory error. Solved that by removing SHELL= line from makefile. Next attempt failed building libgcc.a , text overflow or something. Solved by removing -g from CFLAGS and trying again... Finally created xgcc.exe ... However , make stage1 fails , must move files manually to stage1 directory ... Trying to follow directions in INSTALL file for stage2 compile , almost works , some automagically generated batch files have / instead of \ which finally causes make to halt again ... Again , all of this is with the so called "DJ cooked version " ...
