Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-current@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, While tracing a bug with my Mozilla Tinderbox-builds continuously rasing SIGFPE's I starting searching for the gcc-option -mieee-fp as suggested by people from the Mozilla-team. I couldn't find that option in the gcc-man-pages so I started searching for it in the gcc source-tree. I eventually came across the following oditity in /usr/src/contrib/gcc/config/i386 freebsd-aout.h: #define TARGET_DEFAULT \ (MASK_80387 | MASK_IEEE_FP | MASK_FLOAT_RETURNS | MASK_NO_FANCY_MATH_387) freebsd.h: #define TARGET_DEFAULT (MASK_NO_FANCY_MATH_387 | 0301) apparently the defines for MASK_80387 | MASK_IEEE_FP | MASK_FLOAT_RETURNS got combined into one single octal value. If have doubts that this is actually intended. -------------------- Pascal Hofstee - daeron@shadowmere.student.utwente.nl -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.1 GCS d- s+: a-- C++ UB++++ P+ L- E--- W- N+ o?
