Description Jack Howarth 2006-09-16 16:02:44 UTC 
Currently when the objc testsuite is run on Darwin PPC, the wrong (system) libobjc is linked
in rather than the correct libobjc-gnu shared library. This problem is described on the
gcc mailing list at...

http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2006-09/msg00286.html

and makes any test results for objc on Darwin invalid.
Comment 1 Andrew Pinski 2006-09-16 16:07:14 UTC 
You are wrong.

There are two Objective-C runtimes.
One is the GNU runtime and one is the NeXt^wApple runtime.
Darwin defaults to the NeXt runtime.
Just PPC64 Darwin does not include a 64bit version of the NeXT Runtime.

The two runtimes have differnet slightly different functions.
