There was a batch of testing for 6.3 (? or maybe it was 6.2) - I had some iffy results (inexplicable differences), so did archaic, and maybe others (this was all on x86).
Before that, I'd been seeing a lot of apparent differences somewhere in the toolchain on x86_64. I think I had a few things already marked as "this always differs", but extending that without an understanding of why things differed didn't seem a sensible idea. If it still works for you, that's great, but I can't say if it will reliably work for everyone. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
