Re: [Gm2] Build Problems on Mac

Hi Gaius,

On my Intel box 'make paranoid' passes, but, as likely expected, there
are problems in the regression tests.  I did apply a patch

in the directory gcc-4.1.1/gcc/config/i386.  This is a workaround for a
change in Apple's assembler (fixed in either gcc-4.1-branch or
gcc-4.2-branch).  Without it, I think the resulting messages are only
cosmetic, but they confuse the regression tests.

On my PowerPC box I just updated the CVS and did a make--it compiled,
but I didn't try the tests.
