X-SW-Source: 2003-08/txt/msg00225.txt.bz2 I pulled a Daniel Berlin last night (in a good way) and started packing structures like a #4 train at rush hour. 'maint space' has gone from: before: 99352576 after: 79478784 It would take a lot of time to merge these patches into gdb. I would have to write up a road map, and then test the patches one at a time (that is the hard part, regression testing stuff like coff), then submit the patches one at a time to the symtab maintainers. Is this something worth pursuing? Michael C
