One patch that got dropped on the floor was my patch to remove the dependency in the back ends of the way arguments are encoded, so that eventually for LTO we can swtich to using a vector instead of linked list. As I recall, I had fixed all backends except for the SPU, which I needed to investigate the builtins. Now that SSE5 is winding down, I can go back to this patch. Given it has been reviewed in this list, I will leave it to Mark to decide whether it should go into 4.3 or 4.4. -- Michael Meissner, AMD 90 Central Street, MS 83-29, Boxborough, MA, 01719, USA [EMAIL PROTECTED]
