Date: Sat, 30 Aug 1997 11:27:45 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <199708301342.JAA07516@rio.atlantic.net> (raw)

Could someone please explain the relationships among libio, libstd++, and
libg++?  And given all the activity in C++, could someone explain why
libg++ hasn't been modified since 14 February 1997 (version 2.8.0b6)?

Built the whole dist with CFLAGS='-O6 -mpentium -pipe' CXXFLAGS='-O6 -mpentium
-pipe' LDFLAGS='-m486 -s -Xlinker -n'....the whole package built fine.  I then
went into the gcc dir and built stage1, stage2, stage3 in the normal fashion
to test the compiler.  Everything appears to be working, even with '-O6
-mpentium'.  

On a side note, it may be worth mentioning that XFree86 should _not_ be built
with -O6.  The package builds, but some strange runtime problems pop up...the
most annoying of which is a keyboard mapping problem that causes certain keys
to send characters when they are released instead of when they are pressed.
After rebuilding the package with -O2 the problems went away.  (not saying
this is a compiler problem, just for your reference if you end up building X
;)

The last thing...honest...I was just wondering how up-to-date the
pentium-specific stuff is in egcs (ie if i have 970828, is this reasonably
close to 970821+the pcgg patch)  Since i'm in a pretty good position to
break^H^H^H^H^Htest this stuff on my own system, i'd like to stay as current
as possible.  Going to attempt a couple egcs cross-compiler builds when I get
the time, i'll let you know how things go (ix86-linux->sparc-sunos4.1.4 and
ix86-linux->sparc-linux), and send fixes if i run into any trouble.

keep up the good work =)

We normally pass on basic problems with libf2c exposed by g77 use to
the excellent f2c maintainer so I've done that for comment.  (I don't
think the g77 frontend has any knowledge of such things; burley
probably can't currently read this due to the GNU notwork.)
