PA32. Basically OK. I'm tracking two issues which affect this toolchain:
1. PIC code generation bug (the REG_EQUIV substitution problem).
2. Using weak symbols appears to be causing indigestion for the HP
linker, nm and dynamic loader when dealing with libstdc++-v3.
Working around those bugs produces a toolchain that appears to work
reasonably well.
PA64. Still needs some work, but also getting closer. Issues I'm tracking:
1. PIC code generation bug (the REG_EQUIV substitution problem).
2. FP->SAR copies cause the compiler to abort.
Working around those problems gives a toolchain which builds, but the
G++ tests aren't where I'd like them to be.
There's patches from Alan and John Anglin that I still need to look at and
determine if they're still relevant.
