I think 2.4.4 definitely builds when specifying -O- as extra build
options though. I am working on it, however I fear that -O- will need
to be set for some time.
So I wonder what version/revision Delphi uses?
The build that is used is the build with softfloat support (it's the
only one we provide), which may be the only one that is affected by the
recent bug(s), i.e. it is used as a starting compiler (in the original
email). Further, reading Sash0k's original email again, he might be able
to avoid the issue by cross-compiling a start compiler to ARM from a
current trunk compiler enabling VFP (hardware FP) support. See
http://wiki.freepascal.org/iPhone/iPod_development#Building_an_ARM_Cross-compiler
for ideas.
Btw, I'm not sure what FP type is using in his build because he does
not specify.
Delphi cross-compiles too, so it might be okay.
Thomas
