More egcs progress
Hi,
I've just uploaded another set of preliminary egcs packages to:
ftp://ftp.jimpick.com/pub/debian/netwinder/prelim/egcs/
(These are numbered -2.2)
Now, g++ mostly works. I can do:
$ g++ helloworld.c -lpthead
$ ./a.out
Hello World!
It needs the -lpthread due to a bug - the pthread symbols should be
weak, but they aren't (as Philip noticed before).
In order to test it, I tried recompiling dpkg/dselect. The resulting
dselect seemed to run just fine - it didn't segfault like the current
one.
I'll look at the pthread non-weak symbol thing this weekend. If we
can get that figured out, and it passes a bit more testing
(eg. compiling a kernel), I'll upload it to master.
Cheers,
- Jim
