well, there is no GCC on these machines [yet]. I think I've never tried to
build GCC, but I think it can become a delicate work regarding that there's
also problems with building coreutils using the Forte compiler collection.
It may be a chicken and egg dilemma. But I'll give it a try (unless there are
too many dependancies ...).
Nevertheless: the coreutils' build system should at least issue
a *strong* warning about using non-GCC compilers ... but IMHO it's
better to support many compilers for a piece of software because they
all give different warnings about dubious code - but yes, workarounds
for buggy compilers should not take too much time ...
Thanks & have a nice day,
Berny
