Re: Adding zlib to GCC
Perhaps I just don't see the problem.
. If I develop something in the Fortran Frontend, I build with
--disable-checking --enable-languages=c,f77
. If I'd would ever get the time to work on the backend, and I'd
have a Fortran code example to work with, I would also build with
--disable-checking --enable-languages=c,f77
. Then, after development is complete, I would make one full build
plus make -k check and submit the patch + test results to gcc-patches.
. Subsequently, I would apply the patch.
Sure. But what if the back-end is broken, and won't be fixed for
quite some time? What if the boostrap in the last stage fails because
of a change to a machine description file?
