== Progress ==
* Disable-peeling:
  - benchmarked locally on snowball. Observed a few regressions in spec2k.
   To be analyzed and confirmed with the results from cbuild.
  - patched cbuild to work-around a bzr bug which prevented these jobs
from being spawned.

* Libsanitizer: sent patch upstream.
  Discussion about interactions with qemu.

* Revert-coalesce: spawned thought-to-be reference jobs for benchmarking.

* Neon intrinsics codegen:
  - First analysis of sample codecs seems to indicate that gcc
generates sequences of interdependent instructions where rvct manages
to insert some code in between.
  - To be confirmed by dedicated benchmarking, probably in bare-machine mode.

* Neon intrinsics testsuite:
  - Added support for polynomial variants (*_p8, *_p16)
  - Identified wrong code generated by gcc-linaro-4.7; did not check with trunk.
  - Transforming into a dejagnu forms will probably be a lot of work :-(

* Internal activities

== Next ==
* Disable-peeling:
  - analyze bench results from cbuild when available
  - compare with the results from my snowball

* Libsanitizer:
  - resume investigation about isatty problem when ran under qemu.

* Turnoff 64bits ops In Neon:
  - backport in linaro-4.8 once the process has been clarified.

* Revert-coalesce:
  - check bench results

* Neon intrinsics codegen:
  - perform dedicated benchmarking
