It would be nice to just pull in 7.2 (or just the latest release)… seems like that should be easier to maintain to me. > Okay for gcc trunk and back ports to gcc-5-branch and gcc-4_9-branch? I’d like to punt the approval to a libboehm person, though, not sure we have any. Just checked we don’t have an official maintainer listed. :-( Do we have anybody that wants to review the patch or should I? Though I would prefer a new import of a newer library to fix the issue, I’m tempted to just approve the patch. Kinda don’t want to as any deviation makes importing a new library annoying. What do others think?
