Neither alternative works on all kinds of systems. +It may be that when using GCC 2.4, both alternatives work okay on +relatively recent Sparc systems. The first alternative is likely +not to work on a Sun 3 without hardware floating point.] + +How to compile X11R5 (patch level 11) with GCC version 2: + +The patches include support for building the shared libraries with GCC +2 on the Sparc and 68k machines. This version includes the necessary +parts of libgcc.a in the shared library for X, in case functions in +that library need it. Thus the default behavior is now to build +everything, including the libraries, with gcc. + +If you build the shared library this way, it may not work with +executables made with older versions of GCC (2.3.3 and earlier). +If that happens, relink those executables with the latest GCC. +IF YOU THINK YOU MIGHT COMPILE X FOR SOLARIS 2, then you really don't +need this patch: get /contrib/R5.SunOS5.patch.tar.Z from +export.lcs.mit.edu instead. It has everything you need to do the +build for Solaris 2, sets you up to everything with GCC, and is +backward compatible with Sunos 4.*. Get the the README +(/contrib/R5.SunOS5.patch.README at export) for more info. + +If you see undefined symbols _dlopen, _dlsym, or _dlclose when linking +with -lX11, compile and link against the file mit/util/misc/dlsym.c in +the MIT X11R5 distribution.
