--Lb0e7rgc7IsuDeGj Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hi all, * Ed Schouten <ed@80386.nl>, 20101022 16:30: > At EuroBSDCon I was talking with some committers active in the area of > Clang (brooks, kwm, others) about replacing our libgcc shipped with GCC > 4.2.1 with a BSD-licensed version. The LLVM folks have a BSD licensed > implementation called libcompiler_rt. See: >=20 > http://compiler-rt.llvm.org/ I was talking with Robert Watson about this the other day. The codebase of compiler-rt also contains the libBlocksRuntime.so library, which is fundamental in making Grand Central Dispatch (GCD) work. Because of its small size (12 KB), I think I'll also include it in the import. This means that after the import, libdispatch is the only port needed to make Grand Central Dispatch work on FreeBSD HEAD. --=20 Ed Schouten <ed@80386.nl> WWW: http://80386.nl/ --Lb0e7rgc7IsuDeGj Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.16 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAkzC5NcACgkQ52SDGA2eCwXYJgCfU5IGoxU9aMOMS/YYTAdQyUhh ypsAnRn4AC+GdZGdOc3qz88wDg7fv1Pe =kjS1 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Lb0e7rgc7IsuDeGj--
