llvm dev - Jun 2004 - [LLVMdev] xgcc: installation problem, cannot exec `gccas': No such file or directory

Hi Guys

I'm trying to port and build the GCC Front End to the Interix environment. 
I've succeded until the xgcc program executes:

/usr/local/src/cfrontend/build/gcc/xgcc 
-B/usr/local/src/cfrontend/build/gcc/ 
-B/usr/local/src/cfrontend/install//i586-pc-interix3/bin/ 
-B/usr/local/src/cfrontend/install//i586-pc-interix3/lib/ -isystem 
/usr/local/src/cfrontend/install//i586-pc-interix3/include -isystem 
/usr/local/src/cfrontend/install//i586-pc-interix3/sys-include -O2  -DIN_GCC 
  -D__INTERIX -D_ALL_SOURCE  -W -Wall -Wwrite-strings -Wstrict-prototypes 
-Wmissing-prototypes -isystem ./include   -g  -DIN_LIBGCC2 
-D__GCC_FLOAT_NOT_NEEDED  -I. -I. -I../../src/gcc -I../../src/gcc/. 
-I../../src/gcc/../include  -DL_chkstk -xassembler-with-cpp -c 
../../src/gcc/config/i386/cygwin.asm -o libgcc/./_chkstk.o
xgcc: installation problem, cannot exec `gccas': No such file or directory

Why is xgcc looking for gccas? I've not yet build the LLVM sources. And with
my knowledge up to this point, it is not necessary - Correct me if I'm 
wrong.

I have an assembler (as):

% as -version
GNU assembler 2.13.90 20021111
Copyright 2002 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
This program is free software; you may redistribute it under the terms of

This assembler was configured for a target of `i586-pc-interix3'.
%

Should I establish a symbolic link to this assembler instead?

Yes, you do need to have the LLVM tools built before building the C/C++
front-end.  Please see:

  http://llvm.cs.uiuc.edu/docs/CFEBuildInstrs.html

Quote:

   Instructions
  
   1. Configure and build the LLVM libraries and tools
   ...
   3. Unpack the C/C++ front-end source into cfrontend/src.
   4. Make "build" and "install" directories as siblings of
the "src" tree.
