    Hallo Mike!

    Here is some interesting output captured from the output of bison's ./configure;

    checking whether C++ compiler accepts -std=c++98... yes
    checking whether C++ compiler accepts -std=c++03... yes
    checking whether C++ compiler accepts -std=c++11... yes
    checking whether C++ compiler accepts -std=c++14... yes
    checking whether C++ compiler accepts -std=c++17... yes
    checking whether C++ compiler accepts -std=c++2a... yes
    checking whether gcc supports POSIXLY_CORRECT=1... yes
    checking whether g++ builds executables that work... yes
    checking whether g++ supports POSIXLY_CORRECT=1... yes

    Gotta love it.

    Het leven is goed,

    time to port it to Amiga :)

    and then update gcc to amiga hardware support, oldest gcc did support m68k but imho not lastest gcc anymore, so hard to do any crosscompile of anything now

    Hey Benny!

    It is now. Got all 3 machines up to speed as of this morning.

    time to port it to Amiga :)

    Not quite. Send a 64-bit Amiga this way and I'll give it a shot. ;-)

    so hard to do any crosscompile of anything now

    I'm betting it would be impossible these days. As we speak all I have booting are pure 64-bit x86_64's that would require a crosscompiler to port to 32-bit x86 nevermind Amiga. I put 32-bit x86 to rest back in 2005 and seem to recall us discussing it in this echoarea back then. I have no regrets abandoning both multilib and pure 32-bit systems if the truth be told. Way too much work with zero rewards methinks.

    Life is good,
    Maurice
