Details on this package are located in Section 10.12.2, “Contents of GCC.”
The GCC package contains the GNU compiler collection, which includes the C and C++ compilers.
Make a couple of essential adjustments to the specs file to ensure GCC uses our build environment:
patch -Np1 -i ../gcc-4.3.2-specs-1.patch
To make sure that a couple of tools use the proper syntax, apply the following patch:
patch -Np1 -i ../gcc-4.3.2-posix-1.patch
Now we will change cpp's search path so it won't
look in /usr/include:
cp -v gcc/cppdefault.c{,.orig}
sed -e '/#define STANDARD_INCLUDE_DIR/s@"/usr/include"@0@g' \
gcc/cppdefault.c.orig > gcc/cppdefault.c
Also, we need to set the directory searched by the fixincludes process for system headers, so it won't look at the host's headers:
cp -v gcc/Makefile.in{,.orig}
sed -e 's@\(^NATIVE_SYSTEM_HEADER_DIR =\).*@\1 /tools/include@g' \
gcc/Makefile.in.orig > gcc/Makefile.in
The GCC documentation recommends building GCC outside of the source directory in a dedicated build directory:
mkdir -v ../gcc-build cd ../gcc-build
Before starting to build GCC, remember to unset any environment variables that override the default optimization flags.
Prepare GCC for compilation:
../gcc-4.3.2/configure --prefix=/tools \
--build=${CLFS_HOST} --host=${CLFS_TARGET} --target=${CLFS_TARGET} \
--with-local-prefix=/tools --enable-long-long --enable-c99 \
--enable-shared --enable-threads=posix --enable-__cxa_atexit \
--disable-nls --enable-languages=c,c++ --disable-libstdcxx-pch
The meaning of the new configure options:
--disable-libstdcxx-pch
Do not build the pre-compiled header (PCH) for libstdc++. It takes up a lot of space, and
we have no use for it.
Compile the package:
make AS_FOR_TARGET="${AS}" \
LD_FOR_TARGET="${LD}"
Install the package:
make install
