Re: [MiNT] mintlib release
Hello!
1) gets() patch for TOS
Ok, commited.
2) Line A register preservation: some problems appeared with GCC 4 and the
frame pointer, we should check that everything is OK (there is a compilation
problem on libc_g.a, if I remember)
3) GCC 4 warnings. It would be nice, however not mandatory, to fix the
MiNTLib warnings while compiling it with GCC 4.
I think 2 and 3 are not so critical at the moment. They can also be
integrated in a 0.58.1.
4) GCC 4.3.0 compatibility. There has been some changes in the include
directories in GCC 4.3.0, so the MiNTLib doesn't compile out of the box. I
didn't look at it closely, but I think it is very easy to fix.
The same apply here too I think. If all patches are done I can easily make
a new release.
5) Initial stack problems. There has been some changes about the "initial
stack", without a real comprehension about what exactly happened... I thing
this is very dangerous, and probably the most important issue in the current
MiNTLib...
That's very important. What's the current state of the stack problematic?
E.g. I don't looked closely on the initial problem. It's better to go back
to the previosu stack behaviour (only revert crt0.s or are other files
affected too)?
Regards,
Frank
