I've just suceeded to make build the current-srcs supped at Jan. 13 to use egcs compiler on my Alpha PC164.
>g++ -v
Using builtin specs.
gcc version egcs-2.91.60 19981201 (egcs-1.1.1 release)
When I tried to the following simple c++ source ( "min.cc" ),
#include <iostream.h>
#include <float.h>
int main()
{
cout << DBL_MIN << endl;
}
I got the warning,
> g++ min.cc -mieee
/usr/lib/libstdc++.so: warning: reference to compatibility vfork();
include <unistd.h> for correct reference
and it core dumped.
>./a.out
Floating point exception (core dumped)
Could someone tell me what the warning message means?
Does "-mieee" option not work for the egcs on NetBSD Alpha?
Any comment will be welcome.
