Oh my, you're right, I apologize, I misremembered. When I wrote "before I saw your patch" yesterday, I meant the formal, already-tested patch submission, that I recall seeing while I tested the patchlet I'd posted. I forgot you had included that patch also in the initial report, but I see it there too. https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc-patches/2023-March/614884.html https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc-patches/2023-March/614880.html https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc-patches/2023-March/614857.html I learned that tcl trick from you indeed, and that much I remember clearly: I've long sought but failed to find a way to do that. Alas, for some reason, I had a misrecollection that you had merely recommended using that trick, instead of including an actual patch, in the report I claimed to have based the patch on. I suppose I may have drawn that wrong conclusion from my having set out to write a patch myself, instead of recommending the approval of yours. That, in turn, was presumably because there was an additional issue that needed fixing, and that you had asked me to look into. Anyhow, it's probably a safe bet that I based our patch on yours indeed, but I wouldn't be able to confirm or deny it either way: those details have unfortunately faded away from my memory. Anyway, it was based on the misrecollection that I stated "before even seeing your patch", and I acknowledge that I was wrong, and probably also overthinking the whole issue ;-) Please accept my embarrassed apologies. I think I had better memory when I was younger, but I'm not really sure, I can't recall ;-D -- Alexandre Oliva, happy hacker https://FSFLA.org/blogs/lxo/ Free Software Activist GNU Toolchain Engineer Disinformation flourishes because many people care deeply about injustice but very few check the facts.
