Hi, Maybe asking here is worth a try: I’ve got an HP Itanium machine running HP-UX 11.23. There seems to be a bug in ld, which prevents building newer gcc versions: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=64919 That’s my current status: # what /usr/bin/ld /usr/bin/ld: ld_msgs.cat:

Hi, just recently I found this archive: https://vetusware.com/download/OSF1%20Source%20Code%201.10/?id=11574 this is a package of source code for DEC OSF/1 V 1.0. I knew that this is supposed to run on DECstations (with MIPS), in fact I have a DS3100 running it myself. However, one thing really
