INSTALLATION

The tar.gz archive contains the installer package gcc-i386.pkg.  
Use /NextAdmin/Installer.app to install to /usr/local and you're done. 

NOTE: you STILL need the nextstep developer packages installed in
order to use this, as it uses NeXT's supplied binutils, C libraries,
and header files.


CAVEATS

The libgcc.a library complains when used because it's archive is not
sorted.  It works fine, but is annoying.  I have no workaround.


CHANGELOG

July 27, 1998
- Fixed post_install script.  It actually works now.

July 24, 1998
- First attempt at 2.8.1.
