announce: MELT plugin 0.8rc2 for 4.6


Hello All,

It is my pleasure to announce the 2nd release candidate of MELT plugin
version 0.8 for GCC 4.6

You can download it from http://gcc-melt.org/
gnuzipped tar http://gcc-melt.org/melt-0.8rc2-plugin-for-gcc-4.6.tgz
of md5sum 880db34a1d76a27f51ba4d594e725519

NEWS for 0.8rc2 MELT plugin for gcc-4.6

July 08th, 2011: Release candidate 2 of melt-0.8rc1-plugin-for-gcc-4.6

New features:
 * support for pragmas for MELT

 * the MELT garbage collector is called less often, using the
   PLUGIN_GGC_START hook.

 * several new c-iterators and c-matchers.

 * added static analyzing pass gccframe, useful for melt-runtime.c

 * reject nested defun-s, you should use letrec or let...

 * the MELT plugin build-melt-plugin.sh has changed incompatibly
   (w.r.t. the previous 0.7 MELT plugin release).

 * debug_msg, assert_msg ... should work, thanks to MELT_HAVE_DEBUG
   preprocessor flag, even when melt.so is a plugin for a GCC without
   checks enabled.

 * melt-runtime.h has a melt_gcc_version integer variable and
   melt-runtime.c should be given MELT_GCC_VERSION preprocessor
   constant.

* runfile mode compiles quickly (with debug_msg support). Add new mode
  translatequickly to compile quickly (with debug_msg & assert_msg
  support).

Many bugfixes
  (but some bugs remain)
