Kent,
Well, that did not quite do it. I made that change to the libiberty Makefile, and now I am getting
another error in the gnu/binutils directory (pasted below). I went to the web CVS and tried to
patch the Makefile for gnu/usr.bin/binutils/ld, but I still get an error. Am I going about this
the wrong way? I am attempting to upgrade from 4.1 Release to 4.4 Release. Is there a set of
patches that I can run on the source tree that will make this work? Geez, I'm only .3 versions
back ;-) I certainly don't mind making a few fixes, but considering the complexity of the whole
thing, now that I've found two issues, I imagine there are more out there. Is there documentatiion
covering issues upgrading from X.xx to X.xx? Should I give up on upgrading via CVSUP and use
sysinstall? The situaion is I am practicing on a junk machine in preparation for upgrading my
server, which is still running 4.1 Release. I was hoping to get a handle on upgrading via CVsup so
that I can track the security patches from now on without having to use the sysinstall utility.
