Although new regressions are definitely still being found in the 3.4.x
series, I see no problem with releasing 3.4.3 at the end of this
month.
The build of GCC on HP-UX has been broken on both the 3.4 and main
for three weeks. The following patch needs review:
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2004-10/msg00010.html
I don't understand this OSF4 change:
- -Wl,-msym -Wl,-set_version,gcc.1 -Wl,-soname,$(SHLIB_SONAME) \
+ -Wl,-msym -Wl,-set_version,gcc.1 -Wl,-soname,$(SHLIB_SONAME).tmp \
Why do we want to change the -soname embedded in the library?
Other than that, the patch is OK.
It's my impression that the change that introduced the build problem
(see http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17684) wasn't a
regression fix.
Actually, I think it was -- it fixed an IA64 bootstrap problem.
