The Makefile tries very hard to work for both LFN and non-LFN platforms, which isn't easy... Thanks for reminding me, I will add this to the djgpp/README file. > Perhaps we should act differently depending on value of LFN (or > using command line option --no-split to avoid this nuisance Using --no-split is not a good idea for GDB, since the manual is very large. The best way would be to pass "-o gdb" switch to makeinfo, so that we have gdb-1, gdb-2, etc. (and similarly for gdbint and stabs). I will see if I can convince the GDB maintainers to make this switch after 5.0 is out. > Also I was not able to get gdb/config/djgpp/djcheck.sh working This is not yet working fully. This script needs the expected output files (to compare the actual output against them), and I didn't yet have enough time to prepare all of them. In any case, the expected output files will not be in the official distro, since the GDB maintainers didn't like that idea. So these files will most probably be only available in the DJGPP source distribution for GDB. That's why I postponed the creation of these files for the time being. Thanks a lot for the feedback!
