I have been having occaisonal problems with gcc-2.7.2.1 on the alpha where it makes bad register allocation choices, leading to broken code. I don't think anything in our build tickles this bug but XFree86 certainly does. I tracked down a set of patches from RedHat 5.0 which fix the problem but they are for gcc-2.7.2.3. I am not sure how to go about committing this. I have patched my tree up to 2.7.2.3 and added the RedHat patches but it really needs someone (hopefully not me) to do a proper import of 2.7.2.3. -- Doug Rabson Mail: dfr@nlsystems.com Nonlinear Systems Ltd.
