PATCH: GCC 3.2 suddenly fails every java test, CLASSPATH wrong

Fri Aug 16 04:35:00 GMT 2002

Hi, 
Definitely something is buggy, if it is necessary make install before check it 
has to be advertised clearly. I made check after bootstrap (with success) but 
before install.
See my summary for java test (Suse 8.0, glib 2.2.5, linux 2.4.18) :
Compiler version: 3.2
Platform: i686-pc-linux-gnu
configure flags: --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu --prefix=/usr/local/gcc-3.2 
--program-suffix=-3.2 --enable-threads=posix
 === libjava Summary ===
# of expected passes 80
# of unexpected failures 697
# of expected failures 8
# of untested testcases 1270
