   I succeeded to make xgcc without severe problems but xgcc complained
   when it was compiling enquire.c.  It claimed that numerical constants
   in enquire.c were out of range.  But there are only ZEROs and ONEs.
   I'm sorry not to have exact errorneous line number.
-------------------------------------------
The problem that yopu encount is following.

$ configure i386-bsd
$ make
    .............
    .............
    .............
    .............
(cd tmpcopy; ar x ../libgcc2.a)
(cd tmpcopy; ar rc ../tmplibgcc.a *.o)
rm -rf tmpcopy
if [ -f /usr/bin/ranlib -o -f /bin/ranlib ] ; then ranlib tmplibgcc.a; else true; fi
mv tmplibgcc.a libgcc.a
./xgcc -B./  -DIN_GCC   -g     -DNO_MEM -DNO_STDDEF -DNO_LONG_DOUBLE_IO -O0 -I.-c ./enquire.c
./enquire.c: In function `fprop':
./enquire.c:2307: floating constant out of range
*** Error code 1

Stop.

In my case, the purpose of installing gcc-2.3.3 is compiling XFree86-1.2
X server, I give up full installation of gcc-2.3.3, and make libgcc.a by

$ make libgcc.a

I will also appreciate if someone tell me why.
