I'm afraid this was not a fix. Have you tried it with gcc-3.1? I encountered this problem with the 0.9.6d snapshot.
The output of "gcc --version" with gcc version 3.1 is this (not including the lines of hyphens): ------------ gcc (GCC) 3.1 Copyright (C) 2002 Free Software Foundation, Inc. This is free software; see the source for copying conditions. There is NO warranty; not even for MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. ------------ "gcc -dumpversion" gives just the number: ------------ 3.1 ------------ The existing config script ends up trying to use "gcc (GCC) 31" as the value of GCCVER and fails. It seems the intent of the writers of gcc was to have the "-dumpversion" output be just the number, as it has been since 1994, and the output of "--version" be strictly human-readable. I recommend changing "gcc --version" to "gcc -dumpversion". -Allen Richard Levitte via RT wrote: > > I went for a different solution.
