so i'm now compiling gcc 4.4.7 twice (once to get gcc 4.x itself, a second time after getting high enough with binutils for visibility support) and now i'm on to glibc. predictably, it's a nightmare of non-standard include issues and "oh i need a semicolon or something in the middle of this typedef" in the middle of gcc extension black magic and dense preprocessor logic. i'm using glibc 2.14.1, which is the last version before they started stripping out non-Linux support entirely over the next couple versions. i might have to start fucking mixing files from other versions to get something resembling normal operation. also, if you require inline support and optimizations to be enabled, glibc, MAYBE DON'T OVERWRITE THE USER'S CFLAGS

some of these hardcode ksh commands but aren't ksh compatible, which is fucking ffffffffFFFFFFFFFUN of course my first thought is to try zsh because it's supposed to have stemmed from ksh, and be generally compatible, but NO. newest version of zsh CAN'T BE USED FOR MAKE how does anyone take this shell seriously
