However, I am not yet convinced that there is no such example that is valid. I will have to look at this some more. That will take time, and I am already very busy. Also, if gcc does have to change, then I need a good explanation of why. I can't go to the other gcc developers and tell them that the way we've been doing things for 3-4 years is now suddenly wrong, without also explaining exactly why it is wrong. As yet, I do not have any explanation I can use. There are also other issues here as to whether we only have to change the IA-64 target, or whether we should change all targets, or whether we change a target depends on which unwinder it uses (IA-64, DWARF2, setjmp/longjmp). Also, there is the question of whether the gcc IA-64 unwinder and/or the gcc DWARF2 unwinder needs to change. If gcc has to change, it could take some time to get all these issues sorted out. Jim
