Likewise! I hope Avaneya is going well :) > https://springrts.com/mantis/view.php?id=5058 Cool. Some thoughts: Hmm, compile-time choice of CPU instructions doesn't sound like a good idea, because if I build on an old crappy build machine or a base-level qemu virtual machine then I won't be getting SSE4 when I run on my fast powerful desktop machine. Please ask upstream to switch to runtime choice based on the available instructions on the user's CPU. Please talk to upstream about the test suite stuff too. The upstream website says that it uses the SoftFloat library for the software floating-point implementation. Since this is a modified embedded code copy too, please document this in the security team's embedded code copies file and talk to the upstreams about it. Likewise for the old libc code and for Random.cpp. > After some discussion upstream (Spring RTS), they were at first > reluctant to rely on an external package (or even pkg-config at build > time for that matter!), but eventually they came around.
