RE: [gentoo-alt] OSX 10.9(.1): stage3 failure (gcc-apple)

[Francois Bissey]

That's interesting. That should be added to 
https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=491098
especially if that works.
Do we finally have the fix for https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=491580
in a snapshot? Last time I tried to build that's where it stopped (binutils-apple).

Hello,

I'm seeking assistance in debugging the stage3 bootstrapping issue on OSX 10.9(.1). gcc-apple fails to build. This is my first OSX experience, so I'm somewhat lost on the standard procedures. I'll post the logs for review. http://dev.gentoo.org/~darkside/tmp/logs/
Starting with Xcode 5, Apple no longer distributes GCC (LLVM backend or otherwise). Instead, both gcc and llvm-gcc are symlinks to clang.

What's this got to do with building Apple GCC? Well, Clang defaults to C99 mode (actually GNU-extended C99) when compiling C, but that version of GCC was written in the GNU-extended C89 dialect (-std=gnu89). So, when you try to build GCC, you get these errors:
