As we all well know, toolchain is one of major issues for Linux/MIPS. Probably the worst one. Personally I had just gone through getting it at least semi-straight, and blood, sweat, tears, and peaces of raw flesh are still lying arround. I don't think I'd like my enemies to go through this. Now, one of the reasons for this is that maintainers of some important tools (like gcc :-) are little bit too concentrated on Inhell architecture. They do not apply our patches, they do not fix bugs reported by us, and in general hurt our feelings :). Of course we could start maintaining our own trees for respective tools, but unfortunately we simply do not have manpower right now for that (and many people would give lots of other good arguments against this). So, I decided to put together at least a page with collection of patches to toolchain, that didn't go into tree to make life at least a bit easier. Send comments, patches, and anything else, you see appropriate to me. I hope to get initial page up in couple of days. Ilya. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.4 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iEYEARECAAYFAjsVHHoACgkQtKh84cA8u2k+rQCeLHzpSVBroqru0g95cyo5uJbB askAnRmYdw28hSC06Sp/aYk1AbbTJzCX =a6hH -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
