On a number of occasions I have tried to build ppl and Cloog and watched the process fail repeatedly. I have yet to see it complete with any degree of success. Perhaps this is due to some strange issue with gmp and mpfr header versions and a false error message about libgmp versions is generally seen early in the build process. If this fault in the ppl/cloog code has been fixed then I'll be quite glad to see it. If not then I shall continue to work with GCC without either ppl or cloog as their absence seems to not matter a bit. This is entirely based on my experiences within the Solaris world where we still have issues with the GNU Binutils ld linker also. -- Dennis
