Compiled Compiler
I've got Solaris9 and it comes with no compiler. I've downloaded gcc from GNU, but you can't compile the files without the compiler (chicken before the egg situation). Some sites point to an ftp site of ftp.ai.prep.mit.edu where a compiled version of the GNU gcc exists, but when I have gone there in the past few days, the server has been down. Any suggestions? I'd like to install some new programs and upgrade some that came with Solaris9, but it's hard to do when you can't compile anything.--thanks--AJ

What would I do with the binary?

The binary is pre-compiled for a Solaris 9 SPARC or Intel system.

You do not have to compile it, since you do not have a compiler.

You can find more info at
http://gcc.gnu.org
