This was indeed tricky...

I think that the check_upgrades target is somewhat broken. On my 10.0-BETA3
box I can't run check_upgrades for either 10.0 or 9.2 sources.

For 10.0:

$ sudo make obj

andrnils at jailer:/src/10/tools/build/make_check  17:59:16 0

$ sudo make

1..16

ok 1 - C_check # Test of -C flag existence detected no regression.

ok 2 - test_variables # Test variables detected no regression, output
matches.

ok 3 - test_targets # Test targets detected no regression.

ok 4 - sysvmatch # Test sysvmatch detected no regression.

Variable BAR is recursive.


make[1]: stopped in /src/10/tools/build/make_check

ok 5 lhs_expn # Test lhs_expn detected no regression.

ok 6 - notdef # Test notdef detected no regression.

ok 7 - modifiers # Test modifiers detected no regression.

ok 8 arith_expr # Test arith_expr detected no regression.

ok 9 PATH_exists # Test PATH_exists detected no regression.

ok 11 double_quotes2 # Test double_quotes2 detected no regression.

ok 14 shell # Test shell detected no regression.

*** Signal 11


Stop.

not ok # Test failed: regression detected.  See above.

*** Error code 1


Stop.

make[1]: stopped in /src/10/tools/build/make_check

*** Error code 1


Stop.

And for 9.2:

$ sudo make obj

/usr/obj/src/9.2/tools/build/make_check created for
/src/9.2/tools/build/make_check

andrnils at jailer:/src/9.2/tools/build/make_check  18:00:11 0

$ sudo make

1..17

ok 1 - C_check # Test of -C flag existence detected no regression.

ok 2 - test_variables # Test variables detected no regression, output
matches.

ok 3 - test_targets # Test targets detected no regression.

ok 4 - sysvmatch # Test sysvmatch detected no regression.

Variable BAR is recursive.


make[1]: stopped in /src/9.2/tools/build/make_check

ok 5 lhs_expn # Test lhs_expn detected no regression.

ok 6 - notdef # Test notdef detected no regression.

ok 7 - modifiers # Test modifiers detected no regression.

make[1]: don't know how to make colons::target. Stop


make[1]: stopped in /src/9.2/tools/build/make_check

not ok # Test failed: regression detected.  See above.

*** Error code 1


Stop.

make[1]: stopped in /src/9.2/tools/build/make_check

*** Error code 1


Stop.

make: stopped in /src/9.2/tools/build/make_check


If I disable upgrade_checks dep I get a bit further, but still fails for
libstdc++ on 9.2, running

make make buildworld -s.


By the way, did you mean WITH_GNUXX=1 or WITH_GNUCXX=1 ?
