It wouldn't work, that's for sure, as the input is a unix path. It sounds like GCC4 for RISC OS no longer ships with the additional utilities that GCC3 did. I suggest you install coreutils somewhere sensible:
Thanks, JMB. It hadn't quite clicked that everything is unix-style in the build system. I'd already looked on riscos.info for a touch port, but not found it in coreutils. All sorted now. Still can't get a build working on RISC OS using GCC4.1.1, but managed to build some components with GCC3. Sometime in the future I'll try harder with GCC4.
@Rob, I know you're right - I should invest the time to get the GCCSDK up and running, but being only a casual Linux user, that's not trivial for me and I don't have time right now. Thanks for the tip anyway.
Would be interested to hear from anyone who is building Netsurf and dependencies on RISC OS with GCC4...
Cheers, WPB
