(Hmm, remind me, what was that system I used to identify the GCC 4
gdb_byte (signed vs unsigned char) problems, that I've since been
spending my time fixing? Ah, yes ;-)
Yeah, but there are still some *structural* problems with
rs6000/powerpc; it's a bit of maze of twisted if's instead of clearly
seperated OSABI's. A larche chunk of that poo is related to the old
POWER ABI; that could sure use some polishing by a loving soul.
What would be immediatly helpful is for more people to expose GDB to GCC
4 so that all the other problems above and beyond gdb_byte can be
identified and fixed.
Yup, but GCC got a bit bloated and takes a long time too compile on my
poor old boxes.
