Package: gcc-2.95
Version: 1:2.95.3-6
Severity: wishlist
This request is spawned by virtue of building cross-compiler packages on
a dual-Pentium 200.
I would like for the Debian build system to be able to run the native
compiles and the cross-compiler compiles concurrently. The current build
system appears (in the course of my tinkering around) to mostly be able
to do this already, except for the job control and the source extraction
phase.
I point out that (for instance) first the native compiler will be
built in build-native/, then the sparc-cross built in build-sparc/, and
both builds will only utilise one of my two processors. So if these two
builds can be performed at the same time, both processors should be
utilised.
Error handling may also need to be changed. I think the best way to
report a build error (most likely not having a build-depends for a
target arch, or just a buggy compiler -), would be to stop ALL
concurrent builds and to report the build branch and the error to the
console.

I doubt that will be done for 2.95.4. the 3.0 packaging has another
kind of support for building cross packages: you can only build the
native compiler. If you want to build a cross compiler, set GCC_TARGET
in the environment. Then only the cross compiler is built, not the
native one.
