Hi Louis, Thank you for a contact, at last. Yes, Thomas created a repo for gccgo in 2013?. Sorry I cannot find it right now. Nevertheless, I'd really appreciate a repo where I can submit my patches to, and for you to work from, Samuel/Thomas? (FYI: The patches for gccgo are already included in the Debian version of gcc-6). I can send you updated ones if you need, please let me know.
The port of gccgo to Hurd is completed as far as I know, the remaining issues are (unfortunately) the exception fallback code in hurd/glibc. If you are really committed, you should take this as a challenge and do some serious digging. I think Samuel, Justus and Olaf will be able to aid you in your efforts (including me) . (In the future don't top-post, please! And don't use html mails if you can use plain text) BR, Svante On Sun, 2017-03-05 at 00:13 +0000, Louis Jenkins wrote: > I apologize for any annoyances my inquiries has caused up to this > point, you are correct in that I should have googled to check the > archive to see the archives of bug-hurd, but the only relevant result > for GNU/Hurd gccgo brings me here: https://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/ > open_issues/gccgo.html > > The above link brings me to the very outdated log from 2013.
