I've been playing around with the egcs snapshots, and newer ones rely on a modified version of gperf 2.7 (gperf 2.1 is the version currently in 3.0). Can someone who actually understands what gperf does: 1) pronounce whether 2.7 is suitable for inclusion in the base tree (i.e. backwards-compatible for our needs, or whatever), and 2) take a look at ftp://egcs.cygnus.com/pub/egcs/infrastructure/gperf-2.7-19981006.pat and see whether this is a worthwhile patch to include? If not, what would be the best way to make the patched 2.7 available for use in building egcs (a gperf27 port?) I haven't checked with obrien, but from my own investigations this is probably one reason the ports snapshot hasn't been updated in the past month and a half.
