Comment:
Thank you for your comments. I am now exactly sure what you mean by the
"The only issue I can see is that # of C++ code, and checking what are
defined. in testcc should be C code."
I did intend making a change to these scripts. I thought it would be
better if they returned 'GNU' for '''any''' compiler which was like gcc
(i.e. whether produced by Sun, Intel or HP), and only gave very specific
information about whether it was Sun/Intel/HP if an option was passed to
the scripts. This is because, in 99% of cases, the user will only want to
know if the compiler acts like gcc, and will probably not care if it the
GNU distribution, or an improved one from HP, Intel or Sun.
Once I know exactly what you mean by your comment, I'll make the changes,
rename the files with a .sh extension, and submit again for review.
Dave
