  First of all, Cory...have you tried using Sun's compiler?   It
kicks the snot out of GCC for SPARC code generation.   I did give you a
copy.

In case it isn't obvious, using this makefile with a different
compiler (called
suncc for instance) is done by:

    $ make GCC=suncc vax

Let me know how things work out....

  You'll also have to change any GCC-specific options ("-f<xxx") in
the Makefile.

I don't think gcc specific options are used if the compiler isn't gcc.   That is
why I'd like to know 'how things work out'....

  I seem to recall that they were, the last time I did it, but it has been awhile
since I did that build.

The makefile was drastically rewritten in simh v3.9 (last May) and even more so since then.
