Compilation of Binutils-2.14.90.0.6 on Ia64

["MUTHUKUMAR KANDASAMY" <kmuthu_gct at hotmail dot com>]

Hello all ..,

I am muthukumar ,working in squid development side.Then I have send the 
previos mails via the outlook express as well as explorer so why the names 
are changed(To Jim Wilson).I will check that details to avoid the typo 
problem in the FROM address.

I want to upgrade my ld,as for some development issues.I am using the 
binutils version of

GNU ld version 2.11.90.0.8 (with BFD 2.11.90.0.8)
GNU assembler version 2.11.90.0.8 (ia64-redhat-linux) using BFD version 
2.11.90.0.8   On Ia64 ,Redhat 7.2.


Then I tired to compile the gcc-3.3,but i got the errors as ..,
./.libs/libffi.so -Wl,--rpath -Wl,/usr/local/lib/.
/usr/bin/ld: Dwarf Error: Invalid or unhandled FORM value: 14.
/usr/bin/ld: Dwarf Error: Invalid or unhandled FORM value: 14.

gmake[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

gmake[1]: Leaving directory 
`/usr/local/src/gcc-3.3/ia64-unknown-linux-gnu/libffi'
gmake: *** [all-target-libffi] Error 2

Then for the Dward Error,I found that we have to upgrade the binutils ,so I 
have tried to compile the binutils-2.14.90.0.6 in Ia64.
In the first i got errors as .gmo problem .
Then I have configured with  "  --disable-nls." Then it passed that errors 
and it is resumed at
gmake[3]: Entering directory `/usr/local/src/binutils-2.14.90.0.6/binutils'
/bin/sh ./../ylwrap "" arparse.y y.tab.c arparse.c y.tab.h arparse.h --  -d
./../ylwrap: -d: command not found
gmake[3]: *** [arparse.c] Error 1
gmake[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/binutils-2.14.90.0.6/binutils'
gmake[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/binutils-2.14.90.0.6/binutils'
gmake[1]: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/binutils-2.14.90.0.6/binutils'
gmake: *** [all-binutils] Error 2

So what is the problem with the ylwrap ,then if i remove the YFLAGS = -d in 
binutils/Makefile .It is saying as
/bin/sh ./../ylwrap "" arparse.y y.tab.c arparse.c y.tab.h arparse.h --
./../ylwrap: arparse.y: command not found
make[3]: *** [arparse.c] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/binutils-2.14.90.0.6/binutils'
make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/binutils-2.14.90.0.6/binutils'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/binutils-2.14.90.0.6/binutils'
make: *** [all-binutils] Error 2

So what is the wrong in the Makefile or the compilation steps.
Please tell the reason for this problem.

##############     Thanks in Advance      ############

Thanks
