GCC 3.4 Release Status (2004-01-05)


GCC 3.4
=======

Since my last report, we have made considerable progress on reducing
the number of open regressions against GCC 3.4.  There are now 127
regressions (down from 186).  Of these, 31 are C++ bugs, down from 50.
There are 27 optimization bugs, which indicates that optimizer gurus
could be of considerable service.  There are 18 target-specific bugs.
The 68K port seems to have several oustanding issues.

I'd like to create the branch for GCC 3.4, but I'm not going to do it
while there are still this many regressions outstanding.  My mental
target is 100 open regressions before making the branch, but even that
would require fixing 1.7 net bugs per day to get them all fixed in a
couple of months, and that seems a little optimistic given recent
performance.

You can help by either fixing some of the outstanding bugs, or by
reviewing some of the open bugs and finding that some of them have (a)
been fixed, or (b) aren't bugs, or (c) aren't regressions.
