Um, that is the correct behaviour as described and implemented in this bug,
isn't it?

I guess we could use a patch to the docs explaining the new behaviour and the
rationale. Code-wise I think we're done.

[Bug target/16350] gcc only understands little endian ARM systems

I notice that the latest patch attached to this bug report doesn't quite match
up with what was committed as per comment #15: this bit in
gcc/config/arm/linux-elf.h wasn't changed:

 #undef  MULTILIB_DEFAULTS
 #define MULTILIB_DEFAULTS \
-   { "marm", "mlittle-endian", "mhard-float", "mno-thumb-interwork" }
+   { "marm", TARGET_ENDIAN_OPTION, "mhard-float", "mno-thumb-interwork" }

I don't know if that was deliberate or not, but my guess based on the revision
log for the change is that it was accidental, since the log explicitly says
"use it for MULTILIB_DEFAULTS".

I suggested a patch that would correct this:

Bug 35961 does suggest that we didn't quite get this patch right, though:
  At top level:
  cc1: error: unrecognized command line option "-Wno-long-double"

The deferred 'unrecognised -Wno*' output should only be a warning, not an
error. (In particular, it shouldn't cause compilation to fail if it would
otherwise have succeeded, which it looks as if it has done here.)

Thanks a lot for taking the time to write a patch for this. I do have one
question: if I'm reading the patch correctly, this postpones warnings about
unrecognised options not just for -Wno-* but also for -fno-* and -mno-*. Was
that deliberate?

I think the point Ian was trying to make with (3) was simply that it doesn't
matter whether you choose to implement the reports of unknown -Wno-* (ie (2))
using the existing warning mechanism or by just printing to stderr. So it isn't
a separate thing that needs to be done.

Manuel: thanks for volunteering to write a patch.

I've just spoken with Joseph Myers (a friend of mine who does gcc development
work), and his opinion was that this issue isn't a sufficiently major one for
it to be worth trying to make a case on the mailing list beforehand. His
recommendation was to submit a patch first. So I think you should feel free to
write the patch. (Or I might do it if I find some free time, but that doesn't
seem very likely at this point.)
