Erm my mistake. *Should* fail immediately but don't. I just ran some tests on Maverick hardfloat in a Debian armel environment, and gcc-4.2 and 4.3 happily link -mfloat-abi=hard and -mfloat-abi=soft objects together to give executables that return complete rubbish. So it looks like a new arch name is necessary to stop people mixing the package types. :( M -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
