Building GCC: Difference between revisions

The newest [[GCC]] is recommended as it is the latest and greatest release. At this time, gcc 4.89.02 is the newest release. We recommend that you use the latest compiler release for your cross-compiler. You can also use older releases as they are usually reasonably good. If your local system compiler isn't too terribly old (at least gcc 4.6.0), you may wish to safe yourself the trouble and just pick the latest minor release (such as 4.6.3 if your system compiler is 4.6.1) for your cross-compiler. In that case, you don't need to bootstrap and you can proceed directly to building your [[GCC Cross-Compiler]].
