dn> tcc is very fast, probably has the most modern C parser of dn> the lot, and might even be able to build world except that dn> the shared binaries it generates aren't able to be loaded dn> by our rtld. It looks like tcc only emits the bare dn> minimum to get Linux to run the executable, and I don't dn> know enough about the ELF format to fill in the blanks. Other bugs with tcc on FreeBSD: - tcc generated executables are missing an entry in their ELF program-header table and so do not execute directly. You can work around this by using the base system ld for the final link step. - Someone reported that a few of our headers don't compile with tcc. I haven't tracked down whether this is on account of an unsupported Gcc'ism in the header or whether this is a bug in tcc. -- FreeBSD Volunteer, http://people.freebsd.org/~jkoshy _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
