From: Janis Johnson To: gcc-gnats@gcc.gnu.org, gcc-prs@gcc.gnu.org, gcc-bugs@gcc.gnu.org, nobody@gcc.gnu.org, norbert_wolff@t-online.de Cc: Subject: Re: other/8947: Please add a Warning about "-malign-double" in docs Date: Fri, 03 Jan 2003 15:55:05 -0800 The mainline version of install.texi includes the following after the description of -malign-double: @strong{Warning:} if you use the @samp{-malign-double} switch, structures containing the above types will be aligned differently than the published application binary interface specifications for the 386. If that's not strong enough, we could also add: Code compiled with @option{-malign-double} is not binary compatible with code compiled without that switch. Similar language is now used for warnings about several other options. http://gcc.gnu.org/cgi-bin/gnatsweb.pl?cmd=view%20audit-trail&database=gcc&pr=8947
