The usual place for gcc on any (intel) Linux is
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i486-linux/2.7.2
variable in the version number of gcc (the last part of the path). The
leading part of the path is fixed by the Linux GCC maintainer H. Lu.
*All* Linux distributions adhere to that standard.
Whoever built linux binary version did not follow his own advice
explained in the README.Linux.
If you don't provide a target archtecture to "configure" it will guess
where it is and guesses i586-unknown-linux. When running "configure"
you explicitely have to say "i486-linux".
This is good news. I thought the confusion over pathnames was just a
feature of Linux's rapid development at the moment. Hopefully future
GNAT releases will be configured to correctly install in vanilla
Slackware. I may build compilers at work, but at home I'm too tired of
breaking my entire system, I prefer safe upgrades so I can continue to
rebuild my kernel. Have you pointed out this mistake to Sean McNeil?
