Hi, I've tried to install compaq's cxx compiler (6.3.6.10) as an alternative for g++, because i need speed in runtime.
I used cxx-6.3.6.10-12.alpha.rpm from Compaq's website, `alien'd it, and `dpkg --install'd it. Fine. Hand-edited comp.config. Problem is that Compaq's loader wants `--style compaq' option, but Debian's binutils 2.9.5.0.31 does not support that. Compaq delivers their own patch to binutils, they versioned it 2.9.1.0.23 (for redhat 6.1), but i don't want to spoil Debian's structure (compete with their binutils). Any ideas/experience in this field? ---david
