Regressions relative to what? There are some testsuite failures
which still are not fixed, but these are things like the small-structure
passing bug which requires a big change to argument passing and the
meaning / necessity of MUST_PASS_IN_STACK. [execute/931004-12.c]
ieee/980619-1.c is fixed with the -ffloat-store change in the
testsuite itself.
Other failures are local to LinuxPPC or are recent testcases.
The only regression relative to egcs-1.0.3 is the -O3 bootstrap
compare failure that Kaveh reported beginning in July. That does not show
up in regular torture results. I don't have time to diagnose the problem
but will be happy to look at proposed solutions if someone else can figure
out the cause of the problem.
