	Gcc 1.36 is now available for anonymous ftp from apple.com.
The following is from /pub/gnu/README.gcc.aux:

	Unfortunately, the A/UX native compiler suite has fixed size
tables, some of which are too small to allow it to compile gcc.  To
get around this problem, a binary distribution of gcc-1.36 is provided
for A/UX.  This is a complete, ready to install build of gcc-1.36 for
A/UX.  It was compiled with gcc-1.36 (ie., it's a stage3 build) with
optimization turned on and AUX_ASM defined.  In order to rebuild gcc-1.36
from the sources you need to:

	1.  Get the binary distribution of gcc-1.36.  It can be found
in gcc-1.36.aux.bin.Z on the same machine you found the sources.

	2.  Place "gcc" off the binary distribution in /usr/local/bin
or other directory on your execution path.

	3.  Place all the other files and directories in the binary
distribution in /usr/local/lib.

	4.  Set up the configuration files to build an a/ux version.
		sh config.gcc aux

	5.  Build and install gcc.
		make CC=gcc install
	Or for the paranoid amongst you
		make CC=gcc bootstrap install

	Bug reports should be sent to dwb at apple.com if they appear
to be in the A/UX port, or the appropriate individuals of the FSF
if they appear to be in the basic compiler.  Be warned that due to
the current fanaticism by FSF any bug reports mentioning A/UX or
Apple are likely to be ignored...
