Hi,
Tarballs for GCC-3.3.5 prerelease are available on the usual server
ftp://gcc.gnu.org/pub/gcc/prerelease-3.3.5-20040914/
for download and testing.
Please, report any problems by filling proper GCC bugzilla PRs
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla
and put me on the CC: field.
Thanks,
-- Gaby

I realize it is a bit late for this. If it is too late for gcc-3.3.5
that is OK. I can re-propose this for gcc-3.3.6.
I have a patch to fix an IA-64 linux kernel miscompilation problem.
This is PR 17455. I've added the patch to the gcc-3.4 branch and
mainline already. This isn't a regression, but it is fairly serious as
it is a linux kernel miscompile. The problem can be worked around by
compiling the kernel with -fno-optimize-sibcalls. The patch is pretty
safe, as it only affects kernel functions with the syscall_linkage
attribute, and all it does is disable sibcall optimizations for those
functions.
I haven't yet tested the patch with gcc-3.3.x. I am starting that
testing now.

Let me know how testing goes; I'll then make another prerelease by the
end of the week, so people can test.
Thanks for looking into this.

I've done gcc-3.3.x bootstraps and make check with and without the patch
for PR 17455, and there were no regressions.
