Re: [avr-gcc-list] cannot compile arrrghh...

[Jens Bauer]

Hi Volker,

This looks like a problem I came across too recently.

Try making 3 symbolic links in your gcc source directory; they should point to 
the gmp, mpfr and mpc folders...

ln -s $source/gmp-5.0.2 $source/gcc-4.6.2/gmp
ln -s $source/mpfr-5.0.2 $source/gcc-4.6.2/mpfr
ln -s $source/mpc-5.0.2 $source/gcc-4.6.2/mpc

Furthermore, you no longer need to compile the gmp/mpfr/mpc libraries; that's 
only for gcc 4.3.x and 4.4.x!
You should not need --with-gmp/--with-mpfr/--with-mpc either; just the above 
mentioned symbolic links.

It might be required for you to set ABI... I have the following on my PowerPC 
Mac:

CC="gcc -m32"
$source/gcc-4.6.2/configure ABI=32


Love,
Jens
