Hi All,

Johann is correct in his comment to bug #46261 (below).

The -mint8 compiler switch is now causing the compiler to give an ICE.

We need to finally make a decision from one of these options:

1. Fix ICE, leave -mint8 in the compiler, don't do anything with avr-libc, even
though avr-libc doesn't build with it.

2. Fix ICE, leave -mint8 in the compiler, work on avr-libc to also build with
-mint8 (eventually).

3. Remove -mint8, because avr-libc will never be changed to work with it.

Or suggest an alternative option.

Personally, I vote for #3. What's your option?

Thanks,
Eric Weddington
