Hi, I have spent some time on rebasing the cegcc-binutils branch on upstream version 2.21.1. That was a big knot which became smaller and smaller each time I rebased incrementally on a new release. Fortunately, many of the cegcc patches were merged upstream, and disappeared from my rebasing branch.
I rebased on the git import hosted at http://repo.or.cz/w/binutils.git This is the result: http://git.xcsoar.org/cgit/max/cegcc-binutils.git/log/?h=2.21.1-experimental It's still very unclean, the commit messages describe changes that have disappeared, and more (documented) patches need to be separated out and submitted to upstream. I don't understand those, because I've never read the binutils code before, and I've never written a linker script. Does anybody want to comment, and help cleaning them up? One change that I havn't pushed over is the patch that relocates ".bss" to ".data". This bloats the generated binaries for no visible advantage. Who knows why this was added? (It's a post-0.59 change) I'm not uploading binaries this time, because there was little interest in my other announcements previously. I just want to make sure that nobody else wastes time by replicating my effort. I might upload new binaries when my gcc 4.6 port is finished.
