Jakub, Thanks for the patch. For what I understand (very little) it mostly reverts revision 151815 by replacing the removed 'dwarf_version >= 4' by '(dwarf_version >= 4 || !dwarf_strict)'. So I still don't understand why revision 151815 is not reverted NOW in order to allow darwin to bootstrap with trunk. Then there will be plenty of time to apply your patch after it has been discussed by competent people. It would also be of interest to document in PLAIN English why it is so important to include dwarf4 stuff for systems that do not support it. I am currently regetesting my tree, but I'll test your patch ASAP. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=41405
