Hi Neil,

Installing a compiler by manually picking binaries
and pointing to libraries is a risky business with
few chances of success...

I would insist in that you can build gcc 3.2 in
your home directory. It will take you one hour.
and will solve your problem once and for all.

60 minutes and you can get out of the nightmare !

I guess you may be anxious to try the Toolkit
instead of using your time in fighting with a
broken compiler...

Enjoy the freedom of Open Source, get free from
the tirany of your system administrator,
Download gcc 3.2 and build it.  Instructions
have been previously posted to the list.


  Good luck


    Luis
