What is the state of/reason for Cygwin/Mingw specific mods to official gcc sources? I assume these mods will eventually make it in to the official tree, right? What is the typical migration path?
I ask, because I am trying to do DWARF2 development work for Cygwin. I thought that I should start with current gcc (3.2.2) and binutils (2.13.2.1) sources (or CVS). But, I just ran into a double alignment ABI breakage with the official gcc sources. I have applied the proper patch locally to fix it, but I wonder why it has not been officially submitted yet? I also wonder how many other gotcha's there are? What should a Cygwin developer use as a base for binutils and gcc development work?
