Created a Google docs spreadsheet to help visualise the benchmark
results. The graphs are not very informative yet - too many lines and
too much noise. I'm going to have to revisit them.
Continued trying to build Android. The toolchains build fine, but
Android itself complains about -Werror, and there are a few other real
errors too. Considering I was told it built fine with GCC 4.6 and all I
needed to do was tweak 4.5 to match, I'm not terribly impressed. I'm
sinking too much time into fixing up Android, and I haven't even got to
looking at the compiler trouble. Alexander Sack has said he will try to
get me to a more appropriate starting place (I think), so I'll see what
happens there.
Discussed my maddhidi4 patch with Richard E (wearing his GCC ARM
maintainer hat). He's not convinced that my change won't make something
else produce worse code. I can't prove that it won't either, so I'm
going to have to revisit it.
Wrote up the GCC 4.6 branch policy and upgrade plan.
