According to Robert Ketzscher:

What exactly did you type?

The following is known to work on Linux and DEC-OSF:

    cd /where/ever/it/is/gcc-2.7.2.1
    # This must contain a `p' subdirectory
    patch -p1 < p/patches/gcc-2.7.2.1.patch
    # The following commands may have more options
    ./configure
    make LANGUAGES=pascal
