Re: Apple's Objective-C language patch

What is the history behind objc-exp.y?  Is this from the old

sources have the ObjC support rolled in c-exp.y; it doesn't seem
unreasonable given the overlap between the two expression syntaxes.


I got everything, including objc-exp.y from the 'recent' Apple patch. I haven't looked at the latest Apple sources - I didn't know if I should do that since Andrew Cagney told me to work from the patch, but perhaps I misunderstood.
Yes, I would have requested this.

Believe it or not, very recently added to my things to do today list is to get an answer to the question: can a third party take random Apple/GDB sources and contribute them to the FSF.
