Cool. Ccing gerald@, who has requested that he be kept in the loop on gcc changes in the tree. The proliferation of -mno-sse -mno-sse2 -mno-sse3 options in the makefiles is probably not needed: I'm pretty sure -mno-sse implies the other two, unless -msse3 is specified explicitly. One suggestion from prior experience merging upstream gcc changes: Peruse the bug database for anything significant that was reported or fixed after the above patches were merged. _______________________________________________ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
