problems with compiling gcc -3.2.3 on 11.11 64 bit

[yair_2]

Hello to all the gcc crackers.
i'm trying to build a gcc 3.2.3 on 11.11 64 bit using gmake and i'm getting this error :
"cc -c -DIN_GCC -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -Icp -I. -I./cp -I./config -I./../include cp/call.c -o cp/call.o
cpp: "cp/cp-tree.h", line 32: error 4062: "You should be using 'make bootstrap' -- see installation instructions"

Can anybody tell me how to use the bootstrap option and how will it help me ??

cd to the gcc root and type 'make bootstrap'. This compiles gcc with your existing compiler and then recompiles gcc with the new version. This is done so that gcc is compiled with the latest version of itself. This is gettting confusing... :)

Anyway, in order to bootstrap gcc from scratch you must have an existing binary compiler.

HTH.

Are you sure you want gcc 3.2.3?
The matter is g++ prior 3.3 doesn't
support SOM weak symbols. Therefor you will
be unable to use static members in templates.
I advise you gcc 3.3.1.
Sorry, if you are not going to use g++.
