I got the tar file from stanford and it compiled ok. Bootstrapping
however did not work:

[michael:95] make
gcc -O -fstrength-reduce -I. -I. -I./config 
-DSTANDARD_STARTFILE_PREFIX=\"/usr/local/lib/\" 
-DSTANDARD_EXEC_PREFIX=\"/usr/local/lib/gcc-\" -c  `echo ./gcc.c | sed
's,^\./,,'`
In file included from gcc.c:131:
/usr/include/stdio.h:30: parse error before `#'
/usr/include/stdio.h:32: parse error before `#'
gcc.c: In function main:
gcc.c:1471: warning: argument passing between incompatible pointer types
gcc.c:1473: warning: argument passing between incompatible pointer types
gcc.c:1475: warning: argument passing between incompatible pointer types
*** Exit 1

Stop.

and in /usr/include/stdio.h is:

extern  struct  _iobuf {
        unsigned char   *_ptr #attribute[aligned(1)];	/* line 30 */
        short   _cnt;
        unsigned char   *_base #attribute[aligned(1)];
        short   _flag;
        short   _file;
} _iob[];

Is it save to just copy stdio.h to /usr/local/lib/gcc-include/stdio.h 
and remove the offending `#attribute's???

			Thanx in advance,
