compiling EGCS

Thu Sep 10 21:27:00 GMT 1998

Hi,
	I trying to compile the EGCS compiler with the java front
end, I run into a problem where the compilers on my system interferes
with each other. Half the time the make files expects to run the 
local xgcc(and use its subparts within the build tree of the EGCS
compiler) and the other half it expects to use the systems.
The problem I have seen is when xgcc is called from within the 
build tree, it pics up cpp and cc1 up from the path, so if you don't
have . as the first entry in your path, it will pick up the system
installed cpp and cc1 which doesn't support the same options... 
(or you can set GCC_EXEC_PREF environment variable), but if you do
that now when the system gcc is called, it picks up the EGCS pieces
and things don't work that way either :-)
So, I assume that I am doing something wrong - that there is some
kind of parameter that I can set in the Makefile to tell the EGCS
xgcc compiler front end to only pick up pieces within the build tree.
Could someone please be so kind to inform me what they are?
