<div dir="auto">Let me make another, final attempt to sort this out once for all and for everyone on old systems.<br />
<br />
I got an idea how to satisfy Ken’s preference of not supporting ppc builds on 10.6 in gcc ports and my need to support those.<br />
<br />
That was the stopper so far, not allowing an agreement to merge.<br />
<br />
I may do this today itself: I have everything working for months, just need to sort commits to make it readable and implement a solution for what I want.<br />
<br />
As a bonus, you will get IEEE intrinsics in Fortran – something that never existed on ppc.<br /></div>

<div dir="auto">You should not need gcc8. I had gcc11 working on 10.5 ppc (and ppc64 too). I have seen people using gcc13 on 10.5 ppc following my instructions from the PR.<br />
<br />
What is the point of gcc8?<br />
<br />
You build gcc10-bootstrap and then use it to build gcc13. Nothing else needed in between.</div>

<br />
after all the talk about gcc versions, I tried to build gcc 8 here.<br />
Officially it says "gcc8 is known to fail".<br />
<br />
I first did just "build" on Intel 64bit and PPC 32bit - Intel 32bit<br />
later, I fear my MacBook has fan issues.<br />
<br />
Intel 64bit finished build! Took several hours. I thus tried to install<br />
it... and it says again<br />
"libgcc8 is known to fail. Try to install anyway?" and yes, it just built!<br />
<br />
However then it asks about libgcc9.... but I want to stay on libgcc8,<br />
that was the point... am Inheriting that it will go up to gcc13?<br />
<br />
<br />
On PowerPC instead build fails (and ultimate goal is to enable newer<br />
gccs on PPC too, where it is needed)<br />

Already seen this? Full build log is 6.7MB<br />
Should I open a ticket on this or is there already one for gcc8 efforts?<br />
didn't find it.<br />
