Synopsis: lang/gcc28 - 'bounds checking' patch is missing

State-Changed-From-To: open->closed
State-Changed-By: gerald
State-Changed-When: Wed May 7 15:59:55 PDT 2003
State-Changed-Why: 
I went with one of the alternatives you suggested and removed support for
bounds checking (which used to be enabled by setting WANT_BOUNDS_CHECKING),
as Herman ten Brugge <hermantenbrugge@home.nl>, the author of these patches,
indeed removed them intentionally, saying that they likely contain bugs fixed
in later versions and strongly suggested to use current versions of GCC.
