1997-10-31 egcs snapshot available



egcs-ss-971105 is now available in ftp.cygnus.com:/pub/egcs/snapshots/1997-11-05
(and on various mirrors shortly, see the home page for mirror sites).

Since we're close to a release I'm going to point out what's actually
changed.

	* Compiler hang/core dumps due to alias analysis bug(s) have
	been fixed.

	* Fix problem with "hypot" in NeXT include files.

	* Fix a couple alpha bugs.

	* Fix combine problems exposed by alpha port.

	* Fix sco5 tar vs cpio problem.

	* Fix some filenames to work on systems with 14char name limits.

	* Fix a couple minor arm bugs.

	* Enable stabs for sco5.

	* Fix most of the flow control problems with exception handling
	(yippie).

	* Fix problem with dwarf2 unwind change from 1031 snapshot.

	* Fix some 32x64 (or 64x32) cross compile problems in the g++
	front end

	* Nested exceptions should work.

	* Minor stl updates.


We still need to fix:

	* ppro internal error relating to conditional move patterns.

	* -funroll-loops problems.

	* review some ppc patches that may be necessary for linux.


I think those are the only two critical technical issues on the agenda!
