The problem is only that by putting in more and more changes into egcs 1.0 it might not stabilize and especially with volatile code like the egcs/glibc 2.1 interface this might require even more changes once egcs 1.0.2 is out. You should case about Jeff who really likes to devote his time on egcs 1.1 instead of another 1.0 release. If Jeff has no objections about adding the code to egcs 1.0, go ahead. The code itself is correct, my only fear is that it might not be the last required change. -- Uli ---------------. drepper at gnu.org ,-. 1325 Chesapeake Terrace Ulrich Drepper \ ,-------------------' \ Sunnyvale, CA 94089 USA Cygnus Solutions `--' drepper at cygnus.com `------------------------
