Greetings! The 2.6.8pre branch is basically ready, and effectively in use as stable gcl. I've been working on the experimental branch recently, and it looks like this will be cvs head. If anyone is interested, please check out and try the build, though I'm too busy to chase down failures here at the moment. Still too many changes going on. Be forewarned that the bootstrap is currently slow, the compiler speed is not yet optimal, but the code produced is pretty good. The final pass setting the function signatures will fail at the moment (in ansi), as pcl cannot be recompiled easily. But an ansi image should be nonetheless produced. I'll try to summarize the many new features of this 'overhaul' at some point.
