Improved Symbian GCC

[Akos Kiss]

Dear All,

at http://www.inf.u-szeged.hu/symbian-gcc/ you can find the result of our
efforts to improve the official Symbian build of GCC.

We were tired of bumping into internal compiler errors, especially when
compiling for Thumb with optimizations enabled. Therefore, we tried various
ways to make a better compiler. We managed to produce three different
versions of GCC, which produce, to our best knowledge, code compatible with
and better than the official Symbian build. These new versions are based on
GCC versions 2.9 (Symbian build), 2.95.3 and 3.0.

On the website you can download all the sources and also binaries
precompiled for Cygwin 98r2. Please give us feedback if you find them
useful.

We hope our results will be useful for all of those, who would like to
produce better code for their Symbian devices.


Enjoy using the new compilers,
