Hi Pete, Julius, Excellent progress. Thanks for all the detail. It might be worth running regression against your binutils first. Just in case you have a ld or gas issue that is causing any compiler problems. > Note that this is the tool chain from your github built with a couple > of patches which I've submitted to you already. I'm snowed under by the day job, but look forward to trying it out before too long. How are you getting on with mirroring this into the gnu-dev SVN on OpenRISC? > I expect the errors we're seeing shouldn't be too hard to track down and fix. Good luck. Keep up the hard work.
