What was the reason for having -rumprunxen- etc - surely 99% of applications just want rumprun, and I am not sure that there are not an infinite number of platforms eg rumprunuserspacefreebsd. Didnt Antti suggest using defines for anything that really needs to distinguish?
I think I suggested not introducing defines unless they are absolutely necessary, or any other similar identifiers for that matter. Which are, in fact, the rumprun<platform> falls under. I have a vague memory that Martin justified <platform> in the toolchain name, but I'm not 100% if my memory serves me right.
eg there is no such thing as an arm baremetal platform, there is one for pretty much every SoC thats ported to.
Good point.
