------- Comment #14 from siarhei dot siamashka at gmail dot com 2010-07-22 20:54 ------- Thanks, this final variant of fix seems to work fine. Can this patch be backported to 4.5 branch and released with gcc 4.5.1 too?
As I see it, the risk should be minimal because current gcc 4.5 branch is so broken on armv6/armv7 because of this bug, that it simply can't become any worse. As recently discovered in MeeGo [1], this bug has a high chance of breaking just about any program which does endian byteswapping. The list of broken packages includes 'dbus' and 'utils-linux-ng' to name a few, but surely there are more. 1. http://bugs.meego.com/show_bug.cgi?id=3936 -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=43698
