It would still be possible that some vendor specific patch in my binutils, a hardware bug, or cosmic radiation might cause a failure. And the same people would again be annoyed. As it is not my intention to bring some bad mood to anyone in this group, I think it is just better to stop sending it to the list, although I personally don't understand why people don't just ignore the report if they see that it is not caused by gcc itself. There is still the option to get the reports mailed personally. You just have to drop me a note if you want to have them. You can have the successful test results, the failure reports, or both. The successful test results are still sent to the gcc-testresults mailing list because until now no one felt annoyed about them. ;-) Robert -- Robert Schiele Tel.: +49-621-181-2517 Dipl.-Wirtsch.informatiker mailto:rschiele@uni-mannheim.de
