System name:		deathtongue
Type and version:	SPARC/IPX 7.7R (1 update(s) to same version)
Display type:		cgthree

What were you trying to do?
	xmkmf

What's wrong:
	Look:

	gcc -traditional -B/usr/gcc/lib/ -I/usr/gcc/include
	-I/usr/athena/include -O   -I/usr/athena/include -I..
	-DSUNSYSV -DSYSV -DUSE_USG_PTYS -DSOLARIS     -c  transfig.c
	/usr/gcc/lib/cpp: Usage: /usr/gcc/lib/cpp [switches] input output
	*** Error code 1

	I get this error whether I use gcc from the gnu locker or the
	cygnus locker.  I would probably not get this error if I used gcc
	from /usr/gcc/bin, but I don't want to do that.

	Since the cygnus locker is certainly more well supported than
	/usr/gcc, all references to /usr/gcc should be removed from
	/usr/athena/lib/X11/config.

What should have happened:
	gcc from the cygnus locker should run cpp from the cygnus locker.
	gcc from the gnu locker should run cpp from the gnu locker.
	I do not want -B/usr/gcc/lib.
	I do not want -I/usr/gcc/include.

	gcc should have compiled my program.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	I don't know.  "man gcc"?  "more /usr/cygnus/README.athena"?
