So to build gcc on HP-UX, I need to build binutils first, as the GNU docs say gas is required for HP-UX + itanium. So I go to compile binutils-2.9.1...and I can't get it to recognize my host...?

You need to specify one. > ./configure --host=ia64-hp-hpux11 Invalid configuration `ia64-hp-hpux11': machine `ia64-hp' not recognized Invalid configuration `ia64-hp-hpux11': machine `ia64-hp' not recognized Unrecognized host system name ia64-hp-hpux11. > grep ia64 * Looking through config.guess, it appears to branch based on uname, but I can't find any place where it would match uname -m's "ia64" on HP-UX itanium. So...does binutils support ia64 on HP-UX? GCC's requirement would seem to imply yes since it's required, but how to build it? Thanks.
