Error compiling Cilk Plus runtime

[I-Ting_L_]

Hi,

I am having trouble compiling the runtime library distributed with the GCC4.8 Cilk Plus branch.
I was able to build the entire compiler, which compiles the runtime library correctly as part of the build, but I would like to be able to build and package the runtime library by itself, and that's where I ran into issues. 

I followed the instructions in libcilkrts/README.

At the configure step, I encountered the following error:
>  ./configure --prefix=<...> --disable-multilib 
...
./config.status: line 1371: ./../../config-ml.in: No such file or directory

This is because the file config-ml.in is in one directory up, but not two (relative from within the libcilkrts/ dir).

I got around this by copying the config-ml.in one level up, and I was able to complete configuration successfully.
When I try to make, however, I encountered the following error:

> make
/bin/sh ./libtool  --tag=CXX   --mode=compile g++ -DPACKAGE_NAME=\"Cilk\ Runtime\ Library\" -DPACKAGE_TARNAME=\"cilk-runtime-library\" -DPACKAGE_VERSION=\"2.0\" -DPACKAGE_STRING=\"Cilk\ Runtime\ Library\ 2.0\" -DPACKAGE_BUGREPORT=\"cilk@intel.com\" -DPACKAGE_URL=\"\" -DPACKAGE=\"cilk-runtime-library\" -DVERSION=\"2.0\" -DSTDC_HEADERS=1 -DHAVE_SYS_TYPES_H=1 -DHAVE_SYS_STAT_H=1 -DHAVE_STDLIB_H=1 -DHAVE_STRING_H=1 -DHAVE_MEMORY_H=1 -DHAVE_STRINGS_H=1 -DHAVE_INTTYPES_H=1 -DHAVE_STDINT_H=1 -DHAVE_UNISTD_H=1 -DHAVE_DLFCN_H=1 -DLT_OBJDIR=\".libs/\" -I.  -I./include -DIN_CILK_RUNTIME=1 -fcilkplus -DBUILD_USER=\"angelee\" -DBUILD_HOST=\"`hostname`\"   -g -O2 -MT bug.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/bug.Tpo -c -o bug.lo `test -f 'runtime/bug.cpp' || echo './'`runtime/bug.cpp
mv -f .deps/bug.Tpo .deps/bug.Plo
mv: cannot stat `.deps/bug.Tpo': No such file or directory
make: *** [bug.lo] Error 1

There was a .deps/bug.Plo file, with # dummy in the file.  

I am not sure if these errors are related, and how I can get around the second error.  I'd appreciate any help / suggestions.

Possibly relevant info:
My system has Fedora 16 installed, and the relevant tools have the following version numbers:
GNU libtool 2.4
GNU automake 1.11.6
GNU autoconf 2.68
GNU Make 3.82
GCC 4.6.3

Thanks,
Angelina

Hi Angelina.

It's probably easiest to use the version of the Cilk Runtime off of http://cilkplus.org for standalone builds.  The configuration scripts are slightly different to work in the different environments.
