-[Linux Intel, EGCS-1.1b]
+[LinuxPPC-R5, egcs-1.1.2-12c]
+
+Serious egcs-1.1.2-12c (stock LinuxPPC R5) bug on ppc:
-Compiling with -O2 -finline-functions will cause crashes during
-parsing stage.
+ *dest++ = *src++;
+Bug report filed, fixed in egcs-1.1.2-12f or gcc-2.95-0a.
+Although we've currently got a workaround in place, the compiler
+is buggy; you should upgrade:

+ ftp://dev.linuxppc.org/users/fsirl/R5/RPMS/ppc/
+
+
+[LinuxPPC-R4, egcs-1.0.2]
All compiling with -O2 is suspect, in particular guile-1.3, and
Lily herself will break.
-[All platforms]
+[Linux i386]
+
+A binary RPM of Guile 1.3 has been distributed from the LilyPond ftp
+site. This binary was made in RedHat 5.x, and it will fail if this
+RPM is used with RedHat 6.x.
+
+
+[GUILE 1.3.2]
+
+Guile 1.3.2 is buggy in several respects. Do not use it for LilyPond.
+
+
+[Sparc64/Solaris 2.6, make-3.77]
+
+GNU make-3.77 is buggy on this platform, upgrade to 3.78.1 or newer.

+ Some versions of the AIX binder (linker) can fail with a relocation
+ overflow severe error when the -bbigtoc option is used to link
+ GCC-produced object files into an executable that overflows the TOC.
+A

+ Binutils does not support AIX 4.3 (at least through release 2.9). GNU
+ as and GNU ld will not work properly and one should not configure GCC
+ to use those GNU utilities. Use the native AIX tools which do

-A problem resembling the previous: usage of libg++.2.8.x with the
-wrong version of libc results in a coredump from the scanner while
-reading the init files. Stacktrace:
-
- ios::eof (this=0x0)
-
- yyFlexLexer::LexerInput (this=0x8294848, buf=0x82955f0 "", max_size=8192)
- yyFlexLexer::yy_get_next_buffer (this=0x8294848)
- My_lily_lexer::yylex (this=0x8294848)
-
-Fix: follow the install instructions of libg++: match the right
-library versions.
