Re: Problem building octave-2.1.72 on a Mac

[Joe Koski]

John,

No, I'm building with Apple's version of gcc-3.3 which ships with the OS X
10.3 developer's kit. I think 10.4 uses gcc-4.0. There is a version of
-libcc_dynamic.a located in /usr/lib, but it apparently does not have the
routines restFP and saveFP, so those routines are picked up from the version
of libcc_dynamic.a located in /usr/lib/gcc/darwin/2.95.2. Thanks to Marius
Schramschula for finding the missing routines. I wouldn't have had any idea
of where to look.

Joe
