You need GNU make. On HP-UX, you also need GNU sed.
Known to work with:
- - Linux/x86, gcc-2.8.0, egcs-1.1, gcc-2.95.x
- - Solaris 2.4 (sparc), egcs-1.1, gcc-2.95
- - OSF/1 V4.0 (alpha), egcs-1.1, gcc-2.95
- - Irix 6.5, gcc-2.95
-
-The "make" step takes about 1 hour, on a P-II / 400 MHz / 64 MB.
-
-If you use g++ version 2.8.x or egcs-2.91.x (a.k.a. egcs-1.1) or gcc-2.95.x,
-I recommend adding "-fno-exceptions" to the CXXFLAGS. This will likely
-generate better code.
-
-If you use g++ version egcs-2.91.x (egcs-1.1) or gcc-2.95.x on Sparc, add
-either "-O", "-O1" or "-O2 -fno-schedule-insns" to the CXXFLAGS. With full
-"-O2", g++ miscompiles the division routines. Also, if you have g++ version
-egcs-1.1.1 or older on Sparc, you must specify --disable-shared because g++
-would miscompile parts of the library.
+ - Linux/x86, gcc-3.x, gcc-4.[0-2].x
+ - Linux/x86_64, gcc-3.[3-4], gcc-4.[0-2].x, gcc-4.3.0
+ - Linux/ia64, gcc-3.[2-4], gcc-4.[0-2].x
+ - Linux/arm, gcc-3.[0-3] (*), gcc-4.[0-2].x (*)
+ - Linux/mips, gcc-3.3, gcc-4.[0-2].x
+ - Linux/sparc, gcc-3.[1-3], gcc-4.[0-2].x
+ - Linux/alpha, gcc-3.[0-3], gcc-4.[0-2].x
+ - Linux/powerpc, gcc-3.[0-3], gcc-4.[0-2].x
+ - Linux/hppa, gcc-4.2.x (*)
+ - Solaris 2.4 (sparc), gcc-3.[1-3], gcc-4.[0-2].x (*)
+ - OSF/1 V4.0 (alpha), gcc-3.1
+ - Irix 6.5, gcc-3.0
+
+(*) On these platforms, problems with the assembler routines have been
+reported. It may be best to add "-DNO_ASM" to CPPFLAGS before
+configuring.
+
+Using gcc-4.2, the "make" step takes about 15 minutes, on an x86_64 / 2 GHz.
+
+If you use g++ from gcc-3.0.4 or older on Sparc, add either "-O", "-O1" or
+"-O2 -fno-schedule-insns" to the CXXFLAGS. With full "-O2", g++ miscompiles
+the division routines. Do not use gcc-3.0 on Sparc for compiling CLN, it
+won't work at all.
