<h2 class="chapter">6 Source Tree Structure and Build System</h2>
<p>This chapter describes the structure of the GCC source tree, and how
GCC is built. The user documentation for building and installing GCC
is in a separate manual (<a href="http://gcc.gnu.org/install/">http://gcc.gnu.org/install/</a>), with
which it is presumed that you are familiar.
