Well, I installed GCC 1.39 on both Sun-3/60 and SPARCstation
yesterday, and everything went smoothly, as usual. Both machines are
running SunOS 4.1.

I did the "./config.gcc sun3-os4" thing and then ran the following
script:

#!/bin/csh -f
make CC="gcc -O"
make stage1
make CC=stage1/gcc CFLAGS="-g -O -Bstage1/"
make stage2
make CC=stage2/gcc CFLAGS="-g -O -Bstage2/"
foreach file (*.o)
    cmp $file stage2/$file
end

Worked like a charm.

I made one hack to the Makefile: I replaced "$(CC) $(CFLAGS)" with
"cc" at all places where $(CC) is used for *linking*. This means that
Sun's linker is invoked, giving dynamic liking. This saves some space,
but it should not behave differently otherwise. (I don this all the
time in order to use GCC and dynamic linking -- the best of both
worlds).
