I hope you don't mind, I Cc'd the list in so that everyone can be aware of
the plan.
There are two matters outstanding (the fix for the testsuite problems aside):
1- Libltdl-ization of the makefile and configury parts so that mingw can run.
I'm starting on this next and should be able to post it tomorrow.
2- I may need to add support for rescanning libraries after the plugin adds
object files. This is something I've just only just run into while porting
the gcc lto-plugin, and it may be something that ends up being addressed in
the plugin rather than in ld, but I need to get some advice from the gcc list
to clarify the semantics of how the plugin and linker are supposed to interact
before I can be sure. If it does need fixing in ld, it's probably no more
than a day or two to get it working.
So, best case before the weekend, worst case early next week it should be
complete. How is that with you?
cheers,
