I have been having problems compiling Fiasco from the CVS drop I got about four days ago. The OSKit seems to be having problems with both the 'depend' files (they are actually getting some ELF binary tacked on to the end, although I haven't investigated why yet). Also, the gcc v2.95 has a problem with the assembly (reports invalid register use in the what looked to be linux scsi controller drivers)
This seems to be a new problem triggered by the use of Gcc 2.95. I currently cannot reproduce it (I'm still using older compiler versions). [...] Possible solutions would be to fix the old OSKit to compile with Gcc 2.95, or maybe to implement some header files which emulate the old OSKit's interface on top of the new one.
BTW, according to the OSKit website, the new OSKit currently cannot be compiled with Gcc 2.95 or Egcs 1.x either, but must be compiled with Gcc 2.7.3, so upgrading now wouldn't fix this particular problem.
