------- Additional Comments From ian at airs dot com 2005-08-04 17:54 ------- My patch added the largefile test to the 3.4 branch. I don't think that failing a new test can be called a regression. I expect that the compiler would have failed the test before, too, it's just that nobody knew about it.
Failing the largefile test means that pre-compiled headers will fail occasionally and effectively unpredictably. That's why I added the test: so that at least people will know for which targets PCH is unreliable. I would be in favor of backporting to 3.4 any HP/UX fix which fixes the largefile test. But since I don't think it's a regression I don't think it's on my plate to do that. I will probably do it if nobody else does, but not very soon. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14940
