libiberty/md5.c patch

libiberty/md5.c patch

[John David Anglin]

Here is a patch to md5.c from the gcc distribution which I found was
necessary to build binutils with the native cc under hpux.  Possibly,
the binutils version of libiberty needs to be synced to the gcc version.

Applied.  Thanks!

I will take care of it as soon as it hits the top of my to-do list,
which is fairly long at the moment as I was unavailable last week.

I've been working on this problem (I'm the libiberty maintainer at the
moment), based on some sort of automation (to get around the political
issues).  However, they're out of sync right now and syncing them up
the first time needs to be done manually.  The political and technical
issues involved in linking the repositories themselves are of a larger
scope than this list addresses, and are being discussed at a much
higher level.

If you assume we're going to just ignore the existing issues because
you're being inconsiderate about the big picture, think again.  We all
want the shared stuff to be handled better, but at the moment it just
isn't going to happen.  If at some point in the future we (or you)
discover a way of making it happen the *right* way, we'll do it then.

Unproductive complaining has traditionally led to either
disappointment at best, or expulsion at worst.  Constructive criticism
given with respect is gladly appreciated.

Yes, that's my patch and it is indeed needed for all GNU tools that use
libiberty to build under UNIX with a standard C78 compiler.

Would someone with write access to sources.redhat.com:/cvs/src please check it
in?

Well, I've been arguing for repo unification for a long time, and I'll argue
more. Don't think that I'm going to give on it, I'll bark and bark and bark and
bark about it until you do it.
