For 5.0.0 and 5.0.2, you must install TLS597 from ftp.sco.com/TLS. 5.0.4 and later do not require this patch. +The native SCO assembler that is provided with the OS at no charge +is normally required. If, however, you must be able to use the GNU +assembler (perhaps you have complex asms) you must configure this +package @samp{--with-gnu-as}. To do this, install (cp or symlink) +gcc/as to your copy of the GNU assembler. You must use a recent version +of GNU binutils; version 2.9.1 seems to work well. If you select this +option, you will be unable to build COFF images. Trying to do so will +result in non-obvious failures. In general, the "--with-gnu-as" option +isn't as well tested as the native assembler. + @emph{NOTE:} You must follow the instructions about invoking @samp{make bootstrap} because the native OpenServer compiler builds a @file{cc1plus} that will not correctly parse many valid C++ programs. |
