Subject: [Bug boehm-gc/40785]  New: Powerpc bootstrap is broken due to problems in boehm-gc
Date: Fri, 17 Jul 2009 14:49:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <bug-40785-15150@http.gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/> (raw)

The test and set locks in boehm-gc/include/private/gc_locks.h have invalid asm
for creating the test and set locks and the current Powerpc GCC compiler
generates errors when enabling java in a bootstrap.

In addition, GCC 4.4 has added the __sync_lock_test_and_set and
__sync_lock_release builtins which abstract these functions, so the asm is not
needed for 4.4 and beyond.
