Are you volunteering to do this work? It will be a massive undertaking to bring things back to the current level of functionality. Why is that? Because you will need to pass lots of different ISA and ABI slecting options to the assemblers. And many systems have several "as" which ar incompatible. You should expect to spend at least one month on this project. (yes, the compiler driver knows which assembler to use, so it's certainly convenient to use it - but I can see people using a compiler with a built-in assembler that expects Intel assembler operand ordering instead of AT&T?) I can "see" many hypothetical problems too. Since I co-maintain a complex piece of software, I need to spend my time on real problems, though... -- Torbjörn _______________________________________________ gmp-devel mailing list gmp-devel@gmplib.org http://gmplib.org/mailman/listinfo/gmp-devel
