Greetings, Gaius.
(0) As a prelude to building gm2, I downloaded, built, and installed
gcc-11.3.0 -- without incident.
(1) Next, I downloaded gcc-8.2.0+gm2-20221031.tar.gz and tried to
build with gcc-11.3.0. The build failed with a rather odd error.

This is a new one on me.
(2) Undaunted, I pulled down your git repository for gcc-12 (as
directed https://www.nongnu.org/gm2/download.html). The build here
failed with a different problem.

Yet, it is there:

Any ideas?
Hi John,
on (2) I wonder if mc is leaking file descriptors. I will investigate -
it has been reported a short time ago - also on solaris iirc. I'm not
sure about (1) though (possibly the same issue). But I'll definitely
start by searching for missing close in 'mc',
