Richard, My understanding is the Sebastian intended to at least switch graphite from legacy cloog-ppl to cloog.org (cloog-isl) for gcc 4.6. This has the advantage of decoupling cloog from ppl and thus elimimating the problem of the ppl 0.11 ABI change. I've confirmed on darwin that if gcc's graphite is built under the older 0.10.4 ABI and cloog is built against the newer ppl 0.11 ABI that there is graphite testsuite breakage. Using cloog.org eliminates this issue entirely since the cloog-isl is in use (eliminating the need to synchronize which ppl is in use for graphite and cloog). Jack > > Richard. > > > Jack > > > >
