Hi all,
the attached patch mentions the support of Cilk Plus in GCC 4.9 in the
release notes, http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.9/changes.html
Is the patch OK?
Tobias
PS: Is it correct that the current implementation only supports ABI 0.9
of Oct 2010 and not ABI 1.1 of Jul 2011? (Current is 1.2 of Sep 2013,
cf. http://www.cilkplus.org/download#open-specification) The ABI version
0.9 is taken from gcc/doc/invoke.texi [The library has CILKLIB1.02.]
