Hi, attempting to compile Xfree86 v4.4 I see errors like this
make[6]: Entering directory `X:/usr/src/xc/lib/font/bitmap/module'

make[6]: Leaving directory `X:/usr/src/xc/lib/font/bitmap/module'

As gcc303 has no elf support how to work around this?

It's part of Holger's emxtree.zip. This was downloadable from the old
XFree86/OS2 webpages that seem to be gone once again
(http://xfreeos2.dyndns.org now gives me a webmail login for Fraunhofer
AIS). I can give you a copy if you want (60 MB).

Frank.

Yes, that (webmail) is some misconfiguration of that webserver. Go to
ftp.ais.fraunhofer.de/pub/misc/XFree86OS2 to find the old FTP repository.
Go to http://lists2.ais.fraunhofer.de/pipermail/xfreeos2 (or /emx resp.)
to find the mailinglist archives.

gcc_elf is required to build modules that are compatible with the other
platforms of XFree86. There is so far no gcc_elf port for 3.x, only the
old gcc 2.x-elf/OS2 that I once built. You can still find binaries under
ftp.ais.fraunhofer.de/pub/misc/XFree86OS2/test/elf291.zip.

Ok, managed to login (this morning (PST) I seemed to of crashed the server doing a dir
in ncftp) and am now wgetting elf291.zip. Strange that I never heard of this requirement
before <gr>
BTW GCC 3.3.5 includes ELF support though I did have to rename a few things from
*-elf to *_elf. Seems to compile the modules fine. Now if only I had the skill to rewrite
os2_select <gr>
