Re: Problem compiling 6.2 on dec alpha

[Michael Chastain <mec dot gnu at mindspring dot com>]

Hmmm, try editing bfd-in.h and bfd-in2.h and adding
this line near the top:

  #include "bfdlink.h"

I suspect that the Digital Unix compiler is bitching about a parameter
mismatch because it has an incomplete definition of struct bfd_link_info
when it parses the prototype for bfd_get_relocated_section_contents, and
then later on it has a complete definition of struct bfd_link_info when
it parses definition for bfd_get_relocated_section_contents.

Or, you could try using gcc to build gdb.  I recently built gdb 6.0 on
native alphaev56-dec-osf4.0g with gcc 3.3.4.  I can't build any later
gdb's because they run into PR gdb/1626.  I haven't tried actually
*running* gdb on osf 4.0 after I built it, though.

Hope this helps,
