OK, so Jim Wilson works for Red Hat (ie. the division of
Red Hat formerly known as Cygnus). So I am not out of line
telling Mr. Mok to investigate the fixes in the Red Hat version
of IA64 gcc, since that is where a lot of effort to fixing
IA64 problems has gone.
For example, if I look in the ChangeLog file for Red Hat's
gcc 2.96-94, I see entries like:
=====================================================================
* Wed Jun 06 2001 Jakub Jelinek <jakub@redhat.com> 2.96-86
- 13 new patches
- make jump threading work on ia-32, sparc (#39810)
- optimize static constructors/destructors function
- fix ICE on very questionable C++ code from JDK (#39858)
- fix #ident handling if ident type was seen (#39929)
- avoid regmove for unchanging pseudo (#40069)
- fix diagnostic of invalid characters in identifiers (#41554)
- fix another template mangling bug in the old ABI (#43071)
- avoid moving CCmode regs around in loop and gcse on IA-64 (#42334)
- fix ICE with complex float arguments to functions without
prototypes on IA-64 (#42339)
- fix Fortran ICHAR() (Toon Moene, #42281)
- fix IA-64 stop bit handling in presence of asm with multiple
outputs (Bernd Schmidt, #42560)
- fix instantiation ICE (Nathan Sidwell, #43150)
- fix -fsyntax-only (Nix, #43604)
- fix default argument handling (Jason Merrill, #39466, #42123)
=====================================================================
It's not clear to me whether these fixes have been incorporated
in the FSF version of gcc, but Jim Wilson would probably be
the best person to answer these questions.
