Hi, 

I'm having a problem compiling mspgcc on my Ubuntu 6.06 x86_64 system.  

I did the following: 

$ export CC=gcc-3.4
$ export CFLAGS=-m32  # make 32-bit executable, linked to 32-bit libs
$ make build

Several parts seemed to compile successfully, but gdb failed.  Here's 
the relevant part of its configure log: 

checking for tgetent in -lncurses... (cached) yes
checking for X... libraries /usr/X11R6/lib, headers
configure: error: *** Gdb does not support host x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
Configure in 
/home/johnp/Projects/MSP430/mspgcc/sf/packaging/build/gdb-5.1.1/gdb 
failed, exiting.

The tgetent check was failing until I installed a 32-bit ncurses 
package.  

Any tips on how I can get this to compile, short of setting up a 32-bit 
chroot environment?  

Thanks, 
John Pitney
