[alpha, hppa] GCC-4.3 as the default compilers for lenny?
For all ports besides alpha and hppa we plan to make GCC-4.3 the default compilers for lenny. - both alpha and hppa show regressions in the glibc testsuite when built with GCC-4.3 - gcj has a lot of regressions in 4.3 on alpha (but doesn't work in 4.2 either). - gij/gcj shows bus errors on hppa (either 4.2 or 4.3). Please could the porter teams give some advice (drop the architecture for the lenny release, use another (which?) compiler version, drop gcj/java support, or fix things)?

Now that a working runtime is required for the compiler makes things different. Please try to run a random HelloWorld program using the interpreter.

Please try to run a random HelloWorld program using the interpreter. I'm not at all interested in gij/gcj. Why do we require that all languages be functional for a gcc release? This is a difficult goal to meet. As the hppa-linux libc-ports maintainer I *am* interested in seeing the list of regressions you have and commenting on them.

This is a difficult goal to meet. I'll let the release team answer this question. IMO we should require a port to support some kind of java runtime. Is there any chance to get the IcedTea Zero port working for hppa, or get the hpux java support be ported to OpenJDK?

I have tried to build the glibc with GCC 4.3 on hppa, and rpcgen segfaults when it is used, so the build fails. I haven't start to investigate the problem (I started by the architectures where the problems were minor). In 99.999% of the cases a segfault in rpcgen is caused by the newly build dynamic loader. On Monday please ping me about this and I'll try to reproduce the failure and give you an analysis. I'll be on #debian-glibc if you want to talk in realtime. Cheers, Carlos.
