Why not ask eCosCentric about the legal issue? They already make a toolchain available for public eCos, that can be installed with the installation tool (see http://ecos.sourceware.org/getstart.html) . IMHO it is in the interest of eCos to avoid having its public image altered because of bugs that are related to the toolchain and not eCos itself. The message from Tomas is a perfect example of such a need: Le 17/01/2012 10:36, Tomas Frydrych a écrit : > Some of the more recent gccs were not producing usable binaries on some > platforms (including arm) with the -Os option.
