Thanks Andrew.
[17:00] pinskia, yes I am trying to get an answer if PR21616 existed on
gcc-4.0 :)
[17:01] it might be worked around by optimizing it better :)
[17:01] I suspect its already fixed in rs6000.md, but dont want to go
over the whole setup thingie
[17:02] let me try it
[17:02] than I rather backport that from gcc-4.0
[17:05] did you try the patch for PR 15286?
[17:07] nope, lemme look
[17:08] oh, that will not help
[17:08] I know which bug this is, it has to do with ld not taking any
old offset but only aligned offsets
[17:08] let me find that patch
[17:08] <-- rosalesa has quit ("Leaving")
[17:13] oh ok, i m waiting
[17:14] --> jk- ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) has joined #ppc64
[17:14] ngupta: the patch for PR 13674 is the one which really fixed
the problem I think
[17:15] there is a workaround on the 3.4 branch for PR 13674 but it
looks like it does not work for this testcase :(
[17:16] yup, thats what I was abt to try
[17:16] -fnew-ra
[17:17] in fact I think the work around is causing the ICE to show up,
it is trying to use FP register because that is what the work around says to use
[17:19] so back to, could u try gcc-4.0
[17:20] I did and it worked
[17:20] I have started a build with this patch anyway
[17:20] you might need to revert the work around though
[17:20] oh ok, u mean patch for PR13674?
[17:21] the one which is on the 3.4 branch yes
[17:22] ok, got it
[17:22] thx, will update the bug after testing it
