I did not specify all the commandline arguments used in my email. I am using --build= in the GCC builds (as required). The build arguments in use when things go pair shaped are: '/L64/src/gcc-4.0.0/gcc-4.0.2-p01/configure --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu --target=sparc-linux --host=sparc-linux --prefix=/usr/crbld --with-sysroot=/L64/sparc/tree/sparc-linux/sys-root --includedir=/usr/include --with-local-prefix=/usr/local --disable-nls --enable-threads=posix --enable-symvers=gnu --enable-__cxa_atexit --enable-languages=c,c++,ada --enable-shared --enable-c99 --enable-long-long'

I have found three issues so far. They are all in the ADA build. They are:

Known bug. Ada doesn't handle build!=host properly yet. Ada has a wacky build system and I have intermittently been trying to straighten it out so that this can be fixed.

Your patches are all inappropriate because we are trying to perform a serious overhaul of the Ada build system, specifically by pulling all the gnatlib build stuff into libada/Makefile.* and all the gnattools build stuff into gnattools/Makefile.* -- this will, eventually, solve these problems.

If you would like to help with that please contact me.
