I have run into slight problems using GCC to develop operating systems code
for an AMD64 environment. The problem results from not having the
appropriate code model for the architecture. I am attempting to use more
than the first or last two gigs of address space. This of course, does not
work. I was inquiring as to when the large model will be supported, or
another model with specific support for AMD64. It would be nice to use more
than 4 Gigs of address space if you have it. And perhaps I have missed a
special build of gcc or something, or maybe one is coming out soon?
Thanks,
Nicolas Smallwood
