Hello,
I'm very interested in helping to improve gcc. I've read the most recent todo list and am deciding between making some source files smaller and untangling the header files. I'm particularly interested in C++. I'd like to know if anyone else is working on either of these projects and if so, which files are involved. I was going to start with cp/decl.c (and probably cp/decl2.c and cp/decl.h as it _appears_ that they are related. I'm pretty sure it will be difficult to do this without getting into the included header files anyway - which are numerous for decl.c. If it would be helpful to you for me to have an account on gnu.org in order to be more effective I can do that - as it is, I am presently running cygwin on W2K, but hope to get another disk in service running GNU/Debian Linux. I have a decent amount of free time I would like to devote to this project. I have looked at the documentation for RTL, gcc, etc.(BTW, the -Q flag is mentioned twice in the gcc info file). Any suggestions you can make as far as the approach to take and the flags to set would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Jeff Turner
