<h2><a name="3_3">3.3 Building DEC OSF kills the assembler</a></h2>
<p>The <code>atomicity.h</code> header for the Alpha processor
currently uses pseudo-operators which the DEC assembler
doesn't understand (in particular, .subsection and .previous).
The simple solution is to install GNU <code>as</code> and arrange
for the GCC build to use it (or merge the sources and build
it during the bootstrap).
</p>
<p>Anyone who
<a href="http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/libstdc++/2000-12/msg00279.html">knows
the DEC assembler well enough</a> to provide the equivalent of
these two pseudos would win praise and accolades from many.
<h2><a name="3_3">3.3 [removed]</a></h2>
<p>This question has become moot and has been removed. The stub
is here to preserve numbering (and hence links/bookmarks).

<p>Before reporting a bug, examine the

category set to &quot;libstdc++&quot;. The BUGS file in the source

<li>As of 3.0.95, those bugs have all been fixed. We look forward
to new ones, well, not exactly... Existing bugs are listed in
the BUGS file, and the GCC GNATS database.
<li>Debugging is problematic, due to bugs in line-number generation
(mostly fixed in the compiler) and gdb lagging behind the
compiler (lack of personnel). We recommend configuring the
compiler using <code>--with-dwarf2</code> if the DWARF2
debugging format is not already the default on your platform.

libstdc++ &quot;-Weffc++-clean&quot; is not a goal of the project,
for a few reasons. Mainly, that option tries to enforce
object-oriented programming, while the Standard Library isn't
