I am still rebuilding my tree on i586 but although the kjc binary failed
the "Hello World" test is seems that it can compile some java classes.
I ran jacks with it and it gave to following results:
gkjc: Total 1630 Passed 1118 Skipped 29 Failed 483
That doesn't look good (it is even worse then runnen kjc under kaffe).
But it shows that kjc compiled to a native binary with gcj (on powerpc)
does work some of the time. I don't know how much of the failures are the
result of a broken binary and how much are caused by faults in the libgcj
runtime.
Compiling another java compiler with gcj and running jacks on the result
seems a nice way to see how good gcj is at the moment :)
Cheers,
Mark
