Status ====== The GCC 4.3 branch is open for commits under normal release branch rules.
GCC 4.3.1 is still not ready for release as the x86 direction flag issue (36079) needs to be resolved. We have reached consensus to add a new flag -mcld to allow to work around the kernel bug and to add a configure option to enable/disable this by default. The patch from Uros is implementing the -mcld parts but lacks the configure option part for which no patch exists yet. http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2008-03/msg00417.html The plan is to create a release candidate for 4.3.1 once the direction flag issue is resolved and 4.2.4 was released. I will announce a freeze of the 4.3 branch once the release process starts.
