Say I branch gcc/gcc and keep all the runtime libraries pristine. Now
suppose that a new change in mainline introduces changes in gcc/libgomp
which require a new compiler option.
Since I branched gcc/gcc I'm out of sync with mainline and now libgomp
doesn't build, forcing me to merge my branched directory.
Hum, no? You can either don't update libgomp (or update back to a
previous revision).
Anyway, feel free to end this conversation as soon as you wish since
Paul Brook is right: given fast internet and plenty harddrive, all
this is pointless.
But if you wish to continue, please be my guest :-)
Manuel.
