I haven't followed PTR_PLUS development at all -- what specifically spurred you to hack on this Andrew?
For spu-elf, good alignment information is needed for each load/store as each load/store is only done on 128bit alignment. Since we lose a lot of alignment in 4.0 after http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2004-06/msg00020.html Which actually mention you were working on this before (but it looks it was dropped by you). The next step is to see if that patch is no longer needed for hppa (well and fixing the hppa back-end). And this improvement alignment information should improve the code size for spu-elf (which is important to me as we are only playing with 256k of memory). Thanks, Andrew Pinski
