After "configure", "make" stops with:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
gcc -g -O2 -I. -I. -I./../../config -I../../config -I../../include -I./../../include -I../../libraries/clib -DTRANSLATOR -I./jit -DKVER=\"1.00\" -c -fPIC support.c -o support.o

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The problem seems to originate in config/alpha/common.h with this macro:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#define sysdepCallMethod(CALL) \
asm volatile (" \n\
" : \
: "r" ((CALL)->nrargs), \
"r" ((CALL)->args), \
"r" ((CALL)->callsize), \
"m" ((CALL)->function), \
"m" ((CALL)->rettype), \
"m" ((CALL)->ret) \
: "eax", "ebx", "ecx", "edx", "edi", "esi", "cc", "memory"); \
asm volatile (" \n\
" : : "r" ((CALL)->argsize * sizeof(jint)) : "cc")
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Obviously not right. The other Alpha stuff (jit-alpha.def) looks
good, so is an accidental omission or is there some magic incantation
to get around it?
Thanks,
Rob.
PS: same with latest kaffe-snap.
