Hi Kirsten,

You may have better luck downloading gcc-3.3 from connect.apple.com.
(You need to log in, but you can create an ADC account for free.)
Look through the "Developer Tools" downloads for the gcc update from
August 2003.  (Depending on the state of your system, you may need the
December 2002 dev tools update as well.)  Since those updates are
packaged as standard OS X installers, they should be a lot easier to
get working.

Hope that helps,
-Judah

Hi all,
I'm trying to build the HEAD on a somewhat old PowerBook G4 running
Mac OS 10.2.1. It would seem that I don't have a new enough version of
gcc:
% gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 3.1 20020420 (prerelease)
and I can't seem to build a newer version of gcc (3.3) due to missing
system include files which I assume (though that assumption may be
wrong) are due to running 10.2 instead of 10.4. (For the full tale of
woe, see http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/KirstenSandbox). Am
I right in thinking that building GHC on Mac OS 10.2.1 is more or less
impossible, or has anyone managed to do it? I'm pretty close to just
giving up and buying a PC (various things make it difficult for me to
upgrade to Tiger).

Thanks,
Kirsten
