I would like to do a make world using gcc-2.8.1, tweaked for my system (ie Pentium-II), rather than the modified gcc-2.7.2.1 included in 2.2.6-R. My preferred option is to change /usr/src/contrib/gcc to be gcc-2.8.1 (with the relevant FreeBSD native patches added from the old gcc) and modify /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/cc to compile it. I'm having problems trying to get the correct rules for building things like c-parse.o (where the object is wanted for cc1, but the source file was built from c-parse.in by cc_tools. A fallback procedure is to drop cc from the lib-tools list and /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/Makefile, relying on the version installed in /usr/local/bin instead. (This also needs a few other tweaks to make sure the system cc isn't used anywhere - particularly by mkdep). Has anyone else attempted this? Does anyone have any useful hints?
