Hi,
to get back on this topic. Things look bright at the end of the tunnel,
so it would be nice to clean up some other small details before a shiny
new release.
1) locale / timezone on OpenBSD and FreeBSD.
[NSTimeZone systemTimeZone]
needs to return something sensible... (or all apps will complain at startup)
One thing to note is that apparently the "new" localtime is supported,
but the "old" not. I did check this only quickly with David on FreeBSD.
Perhaps fixing this fixes some other platforms too.
/usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Rome: timezone data, version 2, 6 gmt time
flags, 6 std time flags, no leap seconds, 170 transition times, 6
abbreviation chars
vs.
/etc/localtime.bck: timezone data, old version, 6 gmt time flags, 6 std
time flags, no leap seconds, 170 transition times, 6 abbreviation chars
(doesn't work)
2) cygwin tmp files directory as shown in my tests
3) cygwin bundle support, at least with our own libobjc 1.6 (since it
works with mingw, it should for cygwin too)
I would not consider cygwin blocking, but I think it would help a lot to
get base working on it for this release. Perhaps, if no other problems
arise, it would even make it usable again
A gcc 2.95 check would be good too. Sadly my main box for that has a
startup problem and Sebastian is not around, so maybe I can find another
way.
Riccardo
