There was: ia64*-*-elf* is gas/gld-only, so no need for the check. Likewise, ia64-hp-*vms* is gas-only, too, AFAICT, although I never received any review on the VMS parts at all to the point that I stopped caring about those. Just in case, I suggested ways to deal with the non-trivial issues if need be, but didn't incorporate those since I know of no way at all to test them. However, Eric mentioned that AdaCore had stopped doing VMS builds years ago which suggests the VMS targets are dead. > If this is still pending, Ok, thanks ;-) Great, thanks. I'd also like to thank everyone involved in both testing and review of this series for their help getting this right and their patience. It's been a total maze of revisions and reworks of patches, but I believe the end result is way better than what I had initially.
