    development: We make snapshots publicly available to anyone who wants
    to try them; we're going to welcome anyone to join the development
    mailing list. All of the discussions on the development mailing list
    are available via the web. We're going to be making releases with a
    much higher frequency than they have been made in the past.
-
+   
    In addition to weekly snapshots of the GCC development sources, we
    have the sources readable from a CVS server by anyone. Furthermore we
    are using remote CVS to allow remote maintainers write access to the
    sources.
-

    There have been many potential gcc developers who were not able to
    participate in gcc development in the past. We want these people to
    help in any way they can; we ultimately want GCC to be the best
    compiler in the world.
-

    A compiler is a complicated piece of software, there will still be
    strong central maintainers who will reject patches, who will demand
    documentation of implementations, and who will keep the level of
    quality as high as it is today. Code that could use wider testing may
    be integrated--code that is simply ill-conceived won't be.
-
+   
    GCC is not the first piece of software to use this open development
    process; FreeBSD, the Emacs lisp repository, and the Linux kernel are
    a few examples of the bazaar style of development.

    With GCC, we will be adding new features and optimizations at a rate
    that has not been done since the creation of gcc2; these additions
    will inevitably have a temporarily destabilizing effect. With the help

-

    All this can normally be accomplished by mailing the command line, the
    output of the command, and the resulting `_your-file_.i' for C, or
    `_your-file_.ii' for C++, corresponding to:
-
+   
    gcc -v --save-temps _all-your-options_ _your-file_.c
-
+   
    Typically the CPP output (extension .i for C or .ii for C++) will be
    large, so please compress the resulting file with one of the popular
    compression programs such as bzip2, gzip, zip, pkzip or compress (in
    decreasing order of preference). Use maximum compression (-9) if
    available. Please include the compressed CPP output in your bug
    report.
-
+   
    Since we're supposed to be able to re-create the assembly output
    (extension .s), you usually don't have to include it in the bug
    report, although you may want to post parts of it to point out
    assembly code you consider to be wrong.

    Whether to use MIME attachments or uuencode is up to you. In any case,

 Problems building the Fortran compiler
 
    The Fortran front end can not be built with most vendor compilers; it
    must be built with gcc. As a result, you may get an error if you do
    not follow the install instructions carefully.
-
+   
    In particular, instead of using "make" to build GCC, you should use
    "make bootstrap" if you are building a native compiler or "make cross"
    if you are building a cross compiler.
-
+   
    It has also been reported that the Fortran compiler can not be built
    on Red Hat 4.X GNU/Linux for the Alpha. Fixing this may require

    as it becomes available.

 How to install multiple versions of gcc
 
    It may be desirable to install multiple versions of the compiler on
    the same system. This can be done by using different prefix paths at
    configure time and a few symlinks.
-
+   
    Basically, configure the two compilers with different --prefix
    options, then build and install each compiler. Assume you want "gcc"
    to be the latest compiler and available in /usr/local/bin; also assume
    that you want "gcc2" to be the older gcc2 compiler and also available
    in /usr/local/bin.
-
+   
    The easiest way to do this is to configure the new GCC with
    --prefix=/usr/local/gcc and the older gcc2 with
    --prefix=/usr/local/gcc2. Build and install both compilers. Then make
    a symlink from /usr/local/bin/gcc to /usr/local/gcc/bin/gcc and from
    /usr/local/bin/gcc2 to /usr/local/gcc2/bin/gcc. Create similar links
    for the "g++", "c++" and "g77" compiler drivers.
-

    An alternative to using symlinks is to configure with a
    --program-transform-name option. This option specifies a sed command

 Dynamic linker is unable to find GCC libraries
 
    This problem manifests itself by programs not finding shared libraries
    they depend on when the programs are started. Note this problem often
    manifests itself with failures in the libio/libstdc++ tests after
    configuring with --enable-shared and building GCC.
-
+   
    GCC does not specify a runpath so that the dynamic linker can find
    dynamic libraries at runtime.
-
+   
    The short explanation is that if you always pass a -R option to the
    linker, then your programs become dependent on directories which may
    be NFS mounted, and programs may hang unnecessarily when an NFS server
    goes down.
-
+   
    The problem is not programs that do require the directories; those
    programs are going to hang no matter what you do. The problem is
    programs that do not require the directories.
-
+   
    SunOS effectively always passed a -R option for every -L option; this
    was a bad idea, and so it was removed for Solaris. We should not
    recreate it.
-
+   
    However, if you feel you really need such an option to be passed
    automatically to the linker, you may add it to the gcc specs file.
    This file can be found in the same directory that contains cc1 (run
    gcc -print-prog-name=cc1 to find it). You may add linker flags such as
    -R or -rpath, depending on platform and linker, to the *link or *lib
    specs.
-
+   
    Another alterative is to install a wrapper script around gcc, g++ or
    ld that adds the appropriate directory to the environment variable
    LD_RUN_PATH or equivalent (again, it's platform-dependent).

-

    The GCC team will be reviewing the entire testsuite to find and remove

-Why can't I use #if here?

-#ifdef PLATFORM1
-         12
-#else
-         24
-#endif

-test.c:9: parse error before `24'
-test.c:10: undefined or invalid # directive
-test.c:11: parse error before `#'
-
-   The problem, simply put, is that GCC's preprocessor does not allow you
-   to put #ifdef (or any other directive) inside the arguments of a
-   macro. Your C library's string.h happens to define memcpy as a macro -
-   this is perfectly legitimate. The code therefore will not compile.
-
-   We have two good reasons for not allowing directives inside macro
-   arguments. First, it is not portable. It is "undefined behavior"
-   according to the C standard; that means different compilers will do
-   different things with it. Some will give you errors. Some will dump
-   core. Some will silently mangle your code - you could get the
-   equivalent of
-        memcpy(dest, src, 1224);
-
-   from the above example. A very few might do what you expected it to.
-   We therefore feel it is most useful for GCC to reject this construct
-   immediately so that it is found and fixed.
-
-   Second, it is extraordinarily difficult to implement the preprocessor
-   such that it does what you would expect for every possible directive
-   found inside a macro argument. The best example is perhaps
-#define foo(arg) ... arg ...
-foo(blah
-#undef foo
-blah)
-
-   which is impossible to implement in portable C without leaking memory.
-   Allowing only a subset of directives would be confusing.
-
-   It is always possible to rewrite code which uses conditionals inside
-   macros so that it doesn't. You could write the above example
-#ifdef PLATFORM1
-   memcpy(dest, src, 12);
-#else
-   memcpy(dest, src, 24);
-#endif
-
-   This is a bit more typing, but I personally think it's better style in
-   addition to being more portable.

 How to work around too long C++ symbol names? (-fsquangle)
 
    If the standard assembler of your platform can't cope with the large
    symbol names that the default g++ name mangling mechanism produces,
    your best bet is to use GNU as, from the GNU binutils package.
-
+   
    Unfortunately, GNU as does not support all platforms supported by
    egcs, so you may have to use an experimental work-around: the
    -fsquangle option, that enables compression of symbol names.
-
+   
    Note that this option is still under development, and subject to
    change. Since it modifies the name mangling mechanism, you'll need to
    build libstdc++ and any other C++ libraries with this option enabled.
    Furthermore, if this option changes its behavior in the future, you'll
    have to rebuild them all again. :-(
-
+   
    This option can be enabled by default by initializing
    `flag_do_squangling' with `1' in `gcc/cp/decl2.c' (it is not

 When building C++, the linker says my constructors, destructors or virtual

    Therefore, if you fail to define this particular method, the linker
    may complain about the lack of definitions for apparently unrelated
    symbols. Unfortunately, in order to improve this error message, it
    might be necessary to change the linker, and this can't always be
    done.

    The solution is to ensure that all virtual methods that are not pure
    are defined. Note that a destructor must be defined even if it is
    declared pure-virtual [class.dtor]/7.

 What is libstdc++-v3 and how can I use it with g++?

    At the moment the libstdc++-v3 is no "drop in replacement" for GCC's
    libstdc++. The best way to use it is as follows:
     1. Build and install GCC
     2. Build and install libstdc++-v3
     3. Use compiler flags to use the new libstdc++

-<h2><a name="stdin">Why can't I initialize a static variable with <tt>stdin</tt>?</a></h2>
-
-<p>This has nothing to do with gcc, but people ask us about it a
-lot.  Code like this:</p>
-
-<pre>
-  #include &lt;stdio.h&gt;
-
-  FILE *yyin = stdin;

-<p>will not compile with GNU libc (Linux libc6), because
-<tt>stdin</tt> is not a constant.  This was done deliberately, in
-order for there to be no limit on the number of open FILE objects.  It
-is surprising for people used to traditional Unix C libraries, but it
-is permitted by the C standard.</p>
-
-<p>This construct commonly occurs in code generated by old versions of
-lex or yacc.  We suggest you try regenerating the parser with a
-current version of flex or bison, respectively.  In your own code, the
-appropriate fix is to move the initialization to the beginning of
-main.</p>
-
-<p>There is a common misconception that the GCC developers are
-responsible for GNU libc.  These are in fact two entirely separate
-projects.  The appropriate place to ask questions relating to GNU libc
-is <a href="mailto:libc-alpha@sourceware.cygnus.com">libc-alpha@sourceware.cygnus.com</a>.

-<h2><a name="macarg">Why can't I use #if here?</a></h2>
-
-<p>Let me guess... you wrote code that looks something like this:</p>
-<pre>
-  memcpy(dest, src,
-#ifdef PLATFORM1
-	 12
-#else
-	 24
-#endif
-	);
-</pre>
-<p>and you got a whole pile of error messages:</p>
-<pre>
-test.c:11: warning: preprocessing directive not recognized within macro arg
-test.c:11: warning: preprocessing directive not recognized within macro arg
-test.c:11: warning: preprocessing directive not recognized within macro arg
-test.c: In function `foo':
-test.c:6: undefined or invalid # directive
-test.c:8: undefined or invalid # directive
-test.c:9: parse error before `24'
-test.c:10: undefined or invalid # directive
-test.c:11: parse error before `#'
-</pre>
-
-<p>The problem, simply put, is that GCC's preprocessor does not allow
-you to put #ifdef (or any other directive) inside the arguments of a
-macro.  Your C library's <tt>string.h</tt> happens to define
-<tt>memcpy</tt> as a macro - this is perfectly legitimate.  The code
-therefore will not compile.</p>
-
-<p>We have two good reasons for not allowing directives inside
-macro arguments.  First, it is not portable.  It is "undefined
-behavior" according to the C standard; that means different
-compilers will do different things with it.  Some will give you
-errors.  Some will dump core. Some will silently mangle your code -
-you could get the equivalent of</p>
-<pre>
-	memcpy(dest, src, 1224);
-</pre>
-<p>from the above example.  A very few might do what you expected it
-to.  We therefore feel it is most useful for GCC to reject this
-construct immediately so that it is found and fixed.</p>
-
-<p>Second, it is extraordinarily difficult to implement the
-preprocessor such that it does what you would expect for every
-possible directive found inside a macro argument.  The best example is
-perhaps</p>
-<pre>
-#define foo(arg) ... arg ...
-foo(blah
-#undef foo
-blah)
-</pre>
-<p>which is <emph>impossible</emph> to implement in portable C without
-leaking memory.  Allowing only a subset of directives would be
-confusing.</p>
-
-<p>It is always possible to rewrite code which uses conditionals
-inside macros so that it doesn't.  You could write the above
-example</p>
-<pre>
-#ifdef PLATFORM1
-   memcpy(dest, src, 12);
-#else
-   memcpy(dest, src, 24);
-#endif
