Hi Joe,
I've got this kit for my pmax and I had no troble in
compile then. All you have to do is:
- In the directory where you put the source ( source.aa,
source.ab...) issue the command:
cat source.?? | gunzip | tar xpvf -
The cat command will join all the pieces, the gzip command will
uncompress then and tar will open the tar archive .
Sugestion:
put your system running NetBSD with a miniroot and run the command
from /.
Good luck. :)
Ps.: This information is in install file in the upper directory from
the source place.

Sorry no clue for this. I had compiled this version of gcc with
may native ansy compiler from Ultrix and everything worked fine.
