This directory contains .diff files for various GNU CC distributions.
The name of a file tells which version to which it applies.
Currently, g77 will not build without the appropriate .diff file
applied to the GNU CC distribution via patch. That is because
g77 needs certain changes to be made to the GNU CC back end, which
it shares with not only the C front end, but with other GNU front
ends (C++, Objective-C, Pascal, ADA, Chill, ...) as well.
To apply a .diff file to, say, gcc 2.6.3, one might use the following
command:
patch -p1 -d gcc-2.6.3 < gcc-2.6.3/f/gbe/2.6.3.diff
We hope that changes to the back end required by g77 will soon
be folded into the official back end. Until then, this mechanism
is necessary, and we hope it is convenient for you to use.
