Subject: mpfr-2.4.1-4 for cygwin-1.7
Date: Mon, 08 Jun 2009 09:50:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4A2CDA45.6020009@gmail.com> (raw)
Version 2.4.1-4 of mpfr/libmpfr1/libmpfr-devel for cygwin-1.7 has been
uploaded. This release is intended provide a DLL that can be
successfully rebased, unlike the DLL in version 2.4.1-3.
PACKAGE DESCRIPTION
===================
Homepage: http://www.mpfr.org
License : GNU LGPL 2.1 or later
The MPFR library is a C library for multiple-precision floating-point
computations with exact rounding (also called correct rounding). It is
based on the GMP multiple-precision library. The main goal of MPFR is
to provide a library for multiple-precision floating-point computation
which is both efficient and has a well-defined semantics. It copies the
good ideas from the ANSI/IEEE-754 standard for double-precision
floating-point arithmetic.
CHANGES SINCE LAST RELEASE
==========================
The DLL in the 2.4.1-3 release could not be rebased, which broke
applications such as gcc-4. This was an unexpected consequence of the
move to compiling with gcc-4.
This 2.4.1-4 release is rebuilt using CVS binutils and using the
-shared-libgcc option, which seems to solve the problem.
INSTALL OR UPGRADE NOTES
========================
Standard install.
