Yes. But 4.8 appears to be the last where reload was really stable on these targets. When disabling LRA on mainline x86_64 and s390x didn't even bootstrap (I'll have a look at the s390 issue). I've got results for PPC64. There were no regressions (apart from two libgo tests which appear to be racy and fail also without the patch from time to time: "runtime" and "time"). Bye, -Andreas-
