This is gcc 1.30.  I got the distribution, configured it with
"config.gcc sparc", and performed the steps in INSTALL.  On stage 8
(recompile the compiler with itself), the command (executed by make):

	stage1/gcc -g -O -Bstage1/ -c obstack.c

gets these messages:

	as: "/tmp/cca06620.s", line 78: error: statement syntax
	as: "/tmp/cca06620.s", line 151: error: statement syntax
	as: "/tmp/cca06620.s", line 250: error: statement syntax

I recompiled with the -S option, both with -O and without.  In either
case all three of these messages are the result of this line in the
generated code:

	call %o1,0

The ",0" isn't legal syntax.

Let me know if there's anything else I can do to help you chase down the
problem.  I have no need for gcc on the Sun-4, so I'm going to abandon
the effort for now.
