Sure.

The compiler/assembler on the powerpc barfs on .ident,
hence the omission. I'm happy to make it OSX/PPC specific.
I dont know about OSX/x86, we are still trying to procure
a suitable machine to test on.

Duncan, what do you think about conditionally using .ident?

Hi Andy,

The .ident was added recently by Duncan Coutts:

Thu Jul 6 12:47:12 BST 2006 Duncan Coutts <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
  * Add ghc and version number in .ident directive in NCG
  Just because we can and because every other compiler does,
  lets stick in an identifier directive: .ident "GHC x.y.z"
  into the assembly output of the NCG.

    M ./compiler/nativeGen/AsmCodeGen.lhs +7

Would you and Duncan like to fight amongst yourselves and then submit a joint patch, if necessary? :-)

Cheers,
        Simon
