If not, then I agree with you.
The support was there (C interpreter without JIT) but sconfig.h was enabling wrongly the powerpc JIT which only supports the traditional 32 bits powerpc architecture. The work on the OpenBSD/sparc64 support was harder by far because I tried every option until Racket passed the tests. Even in that case, I think that the mention is unnecessary. IMHO, only worth to mention the support for new architectures when it includes JIT support. In short, in my experience any architecture, which runs a supported OS, is supported by the C interpreter (with the exception of hppa/itanium due to the weird stack growth direction). -- Juan Francisco Cantero Hurtado http://juanfra.info -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Developers" group.
