+hppa2.0-hp-hpux10.20
+
+Due to a problem (conflicting types) with libiberty/regex.c, GDB 5.1
+does not build on HP/UX 10.20 when using the HP supplied compiler.
+
+Due to bit rot, GDB 5.1 does not work on HP/UX 10.20 when built with
+GCC.
+
+
+hppa2.0w-hp-hpux11.00
+
+Due to a problem with ltconfig and long argument lines, GDB 5.1 does
+not configure on HP/UX 11.00.
+
+
+alpha-dec-osf5.1
+
+GDB 5.1 has a number of problems on this platform (Ref PR gdb/237).  A
+GDB 5.1 built with ``CC="cc -DUSE_LDR_ROUTINES"'' is reported to work
+much better.
+
+
+alpha-dec-osf4.0e
+
+GDB 5.1 is known to have problems on this platform (encounters an
+internal error in the symbol table reader).
+
+
+sparcv9-sun-solaris2.8
+
+There are known problems with building GDB 5.1 using GCC 3.0.x for the
+64 bit SPARC target (bad code gen).  You could try a development
+version of GCC.
+
+
+i586-sco-sysv5uw7.1.1
+
+There are known problems with GDB 5.1's thread support on this
+platform.  Non-threaded programs should work.
+
+
+*-*-*
+
+GDB 5.1 assumes that the host C compiler implemends alloca().  GCC is
+one such compiler.  This problem should be fixed on the trunk.
