I get the failure Richard mentioned when I use -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2
-fstack-protector but no failures without those options. This is on
powerpc64-linux (but defaulting to -m32) with:
RHEL 5.3
GCC 4.3.2
GMP 4.2.4
MPFR 2.4.1
MPC 0.6
Okay the -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 bug has been fixed in svn. I don't think that
affects any platform besides linux when using that macro.
So we can proceed with testing mpc-0.6 on other platforms. We still need to
complete the primary/secondary list missing from this link for mpc-0.6:
http://www.multiprecision.org/mpc/index.php?content=platforms
I.e. we need (primaries) x86-freebsd, x86-darwin, sparc-solaris2.10 and
(secondaries) hppa-hpux11, ppc-aix5.2, ppc-darwin, x86-mingw32 and
s390-linux-gnu.
If you supplied the relevant testing for the prerelease tarball svn459, if
you would be so kind as to repeat the testing with the official mpc-0.6
release I would greatly appreciate it. (Thanks Ralf!) Get it here:
http://www.multiprecision.org/mpc/
And report your results along with the versions of target
triplet/compiler/gmp/mpfr that you used.
I've cc'ed others who have access to the platforms in question based on GCC
test results. Please help if you can.
Thanks,
