Message-Id: List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: linux-ia64@vger.kernel.org Right now I'm using the ia64-final version of gcc, and from test10 on a check is done on whether __GNUC_MINOR__ is greater than 91. ia64-final returns 9 which is obviously not what the kernel expects... After commenting this out and fixing by hand quite a lot of places, I got it to compile and boot though. But more recent snapshots of gcc are available. Are they worth upgrading? Also, will the current glibc-2.2 compile as is on ia64 and work? -- Francis Galiegue, fg@mandrakesoft.com "Programming is a race between programmers, who try and make more and more idiot-proof software, and universe, which produces more and more remarkable idiots.
