973	Final system GCC on PPC	chris@…	clfs-commits@…	"In final-system/ppc, there is a ""gcc.xml"". The only difference from common that I can see is that the ""make"" command has an additional variable...
{{{
make STAGE1_CFLAGS=""-g -O2""
}}}

This command is also used, via xinclude, in ppc64/gcc.xml. It was added a few years ago, with a message saying that the extra variable is needed for GCC to compile on PPC. However, ppc-chapter.xml actually uses ""common/gcc.xml"", and ppc64-64-chapter.xml has ""64/gcc.xml"" - the specific make command from ""ppc/gcc.xml"" is only used in the PPC multilib book.

In short, can someone with a PPC system (preferably 64, to test both 32 and 64 bits) verify if that make command is really needed? Can GCC in the final system be compiled with just plain ""make""?"	task	closed	major		BOOK		fixed		berzerkula@… jonathan@… chris@…
