I wouldn't call it "extremely unfair". But then I automatically inserted "to me" after "mostly irrelevant". To me, it's still useful. I particularly appreciate the chance to test on big endian, and on proprietary Unix (sadly down to one system), because that helps me keeping my code portable. A wider selection of machines would make it more useful, of course. >> I have moved on to qemu emulation for my GNU hacking. > > Good for you. QEMU is good for what it's good for. Means to cross-check on real hardware is very useful. Moreover, non-obsolete real hardware tends to be quite a bit faster than QEMU. _______________________________________________ Gcc-cfarm-users mailing list Gcc-cfarm-users@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/gcc-cfarm-users
