GCC upgrade ? on -current

[Sid Carter]

Hi,

Just a query. Is there anything stopping us from moving to the 
latest gcc on current ? Just curious. Cause mozilla won't compile with
gcc from current and I have installed gcc from the ports just for that.

Thanks
Regards
Sid

I hacked together a really crude patch based on some info from Joe
Clark(e?).  Dig through the archives from earlier this week and you
should find something.  -sc

Not exactly an answer to your question, but about a week ago or so a
patch was posted that lets you compile mozilla with the system gcc. I
tried it out and am now happily running mozilla 1.0. At least that's a
short-term fix for you.

Only David's(?) time constraints I think. Gcc is a huge thing to port/maintain, and thus sucks a lot of time.
Of course, if someone else was to assist... ;-)

On Intel, FreeBSD will automatically use 4M pages for mmap'ed
device and other memory that is on a 4M boundary and a multiple
of 4M in size.

You would have to ask Wilko or Drew, etc., about Alpha.  For that,
you would have better luck posting on the -alpha list, rather than
the -current list.

To make this clear: It was a patch against Mozilla, which changed
the default THUNK type expected in recent FreeBSD.
