Hello Simon,

The reason for this was that I was assuming porting the mangler to understand

else with GAS syntax, it might be feasible. Still, going NCG-only is the
preferred solution, and it's the direction we want to move in.
well, while C compilers generate better code - please try to support
them. in this particular case, -fvia-C will make accessible both MS
and Intel compilers, and the latter is the best C compiler at the
moment
It'll need a *lot* of work in the mangler (that horrible Perl script) to support
mangling the output from the MS/Intel compilers.
i interpreted your words above as "we don't need to change mangler to
support new compiler". if this needs a work, we shouldn't done it -
afaiu, main users request is support of object code linking with MS
compilers, not any speed breakthroughs
Sorry, I don't understand what you're trying to say here. Could you rephrase
it?
Cheers,
Simon
