gas 2.11 problems with gcc

[Matt Schalit <mschalit at pacbell dot net>]

Madam/Sir:

  Shouldn't I be able to bootstrap gcc 3.0 using gas-2.11?


  I realize this is the bunutils mailing-list and not gcc-bugs.  
But I've tried there several times with no response, and I'd 
really like to use gas.


  On UnixWare 7.1.1, if I rename the native as to as.orig,
then I can force gcc to use gas.

  But I can't even get past the first configure test....

  The gcc/gcc/config/svr4.h   ASM_SPEC   makes a -Qy appear, 
and that causes gas to error out.  


ASM_SPEC
---------
  #define ASM_SPEC  "%{v:-V} %{Qy:} %{!Qn:-Qy} %{n} %{T} %{Ym,*} %{Yd,*} %{Wa,*:%*}"


Error:
-------
  /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/i586-sco-sysv5uw7.1.1/2.95.3/as: unrecognized option `-Qy'




Below are the details.....
Thanks for any help!

Here's what I did:


   $ su - root
   Password: ******
   # mv /usr/ccs/bin/as /usr/ccs/bin/as.orig
   # mv /bin/as /bin/as.orig
   # exit

   $ /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/i586-sco-sysv5uw7.1.1/2.95.3/as --version

Thank you for reading this far.  The ASM_SPEC is set in
    <build_dir>/gcc/gcc/config/svr4.h 
from what I can gather.


#define ASM_SPEC \
  "%{v:-V} %{Qy:} %{!Qn:-Qy} %{n} %{T} %{Ym,*} %{Yd,*} %{Wa,*:%*}"
