+usually work, library requirements are generally stricter. Newer
+versions may work in some cases, but it's safer to use the exact
+versions documented. We appreciate bug reports about problems with
+newer versions, though. If your OS vendor provides packages for the
+support libraries then using those packages may be the simplest way to
+install the libraries.

are running the DEC/Compaq/HP Unix (DEC OSF/1, Digital UNIX, or Compaq/HP
Tru64 UNIX) operating system, for example the DEC Alpha AXP systems.
-As of GCC 3.2, versions before @code{alpha*-dec-osf4} are no longer
-supported. (These are the versions which identify themselves as DEC
-OSF/1.) As of GCC 4.6, support for Tru64 UNIX V4.0 and V5.0 has been
-removed.
-
-On Tru64 UNIX, virtual memory exhausted bootstrap failures
-may be fixed by reconfiguring Kernel Virtual Memory and Swap parameters
-per the @command{/usr/sbin/sys_check} Tuning Suggestions,
-or applying the patch in
-@uref{http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2002-08/msg00822.html}. Depending on
-the OS version used, you need a data segment size between 512 MB and
-1 GB, so simply use @command{ulimit -Sd unlimited}.
-
-As of GNU binutils 2.20.1, neither GNU @command{as} nor GNU @command{ld}
-are supported on Tru64 UNIX, so you must not configure GCC with
-@option{--with-gnu-as} or @option{--with-gnu-ld}.
-
-GCC writes a @samp{.verstamp} directive to the assembler output file
-unless it is built as a cross-compiler. It gets the version to use from
-the system header file @file{/usr/include/stamp.h}. If you install a
-new version of Tru64 UNIX, you should rebuild GCC to pick up the new version
-stamp.
-
-GCC now supports both the native (ECOFF) debugging format used by DBX
-and GDB and an encapsulated STABS format for use only with GDB@. See the
-discussion of the @option{--with-stabs} option of @file{configure} above
-for more information on these formats and how to select them.
-@c FIXME: does this work at all? If so, perhaps make default.
-
-There is a bug in DEC's assembler that produces incorrect line numbers
-for ECOFF format when the @samp{.align} directive is used. To work
-around this problem, GCC will not emit such alignment directives
-while writing ECOFF format debugging information even if optimization is
-being performed. Unfortunately, this has the very undesirable
-side-effect that code addresses when @option{-O} is specified are
-different depending on whether or not @option{-g} is also specified.
-
-To avoid this behavior, specify @option{-gstabs+} and use GDB instead of
-DBX@. DEC is now aware of this problem with the assembler and hopes to
-provide a fix shortly.

-Support for IRIX 6 releases before 6.5 has been removed in GCC 4.6, as

-the O32 ABI. It is @emph{strongly} recommended to upgrade to at least
-IRIX 6.5.18. This release introduced full ISO C99 support, though for
-the N32 and N64 ABIs only.
-
-To build and use GCC on IRIX 6.5, you need the IRIX Development Foundation
-(IDF) and IRIX Development Libraries (IDL). They are included with the
-IRIX 6.5 media.
-
-If you are using SGI's MIPSpro @command{cc} as your bootstrap compiler, you must
-ensure that the N32 ABI is in use. To test this, compile a simple C
-file with @command{cc} and then run @command{file} on the
-resulting object file. The output should look like:
-
-@smallexample
-test.o: ELF N32 MSB @dots{}
-@end smallexample
-
-@noindent
-If you see:
-
-@smallexample
-test.o: ELF 32-bit MSB @dots{}
-@end smallexample
-
-@noindent
-or
-
-@smallexample
-test.o: ELF 64-bit MSB @dots{}
-@end smallexample
-
-@noindent
-then your version of @command{cc} uses the O32 or N64 ABI by default. You
-should set the environment variable @env{CC} to @samp{cc -n32}
-before configuring GCC@.
-
-If you want the resulting @command{gcc} to run on old 32-bit systems
-with the MIPS R4400 CPU, you need to ensure that only code for the @samp{mips3}
-instruction set architecture (ISA) is generated. While GCC 3.x does
-this correctly, both GCC 2.95 and SGI's MIPSpro @command{cc} may change
-the ISA depending on the machine where GCC is built. Using one of them
-as the bootstrap compiler may result in @samp{mips4} code, which won't run at
-all on @samp{mips3}-only systems. For the test program above, you should see:
-
-@smallexample
-test.o: ELF N32 MSB mips-3 @dots{}
-@end smallexample
-
-@noindent
-If you get:
-
-@smallexample
-test.o: ELF N32 MSB mips-4 @dots{}
-@end smallexample
-
-@noindent
-instead, you should set the environment variable @env{CC} to @samp{cc
--n32 -mips3} or @samp{gcc -mips3} respectively before configuring GCC@.
-
-MIPSpro C 7.4 may cause bootstrap failures, due to a bug when inlining
-@code{memcmp}. Either add @code{-U__INLINE_INTRINSICS} to the @env{CC}
-environment variable as a workaround or upgrade to MIPSpro C 7.4.1m.
-
-GCC on IRIX 6.5 is usually built to support the N32 and N64 ABIs. If
-you build GCC on a system that doesn't have the N64 libraries installed
-or cannot run 64-bit binaries,
-you need to configure with @option{--disable-multilib} so GCC doesn't
-try to use them.
-Look for @file{/usr/lib64/libc.so.1} to see if you
-have the 64-bit libraries installed.
-
-GCC must be configured with GNU @command{as}. The latest version, from GNU
-binutils 2.20.1, is known to work. On the other hand, bootstrap fails
-with GNU @command{ld} at least since GNU binutils 2.17.
-
-The @option{--enable-libgcj}
-option is disabled by default: IRIX 6 uses a very low default limit
-(20480) for the command line length. Although @command{libtool} contains a
-workaround for this problem, at least the N64 @samp{libgcj} is known not
-to build despite this, running into an internal error of the native
-@command{ld}. A sure fix is to increase this limit (@samp{ncargs}) to
-its maximum of 262144 bytes. If you have root access, you can use the
-@command{systune} command to do this.
-@c FIXME: does this work with current libtool?
-
-@code{wchar_t} support in @samp{libstdc++} is not available for old
-IRIX 6.5.x releases, @math{x < 19}. The problem cannot be autodetected
-and in order to build GCC for such targets you need to configure with
