Jakub and Richi,
At this point I have decided to that i am not going to get the rest of
the wide-int patches into a stable enough form for this round. The
combination of still living without power at my house and some issues
that i hit with the front ends has made it impossible to get this
finished by today's deadline.
I do want patches 1-7 to go in (after proper review) but i am going to
withdraw patch 8 for this round.
patches 1-5 deal with the rtl level. These have been extensively
tested and "examined" with the exception of patch 4, "examined" by
Richard Sandiford. They clean up a lot of things at the rtl level
that effect every port as well as fixing some outstanding regressions.
patches 6 and 7 are general cleanups at the tree level and can be
justified as on their own without any regard to wide-int. They have
also been extensively tested.
I am withdrawing patch 8 because it converted tree-vpn to use wide-ints
but the benefit of this patch really cannot be seen without the rest of
the tree level wide-int patches.
In the next couple of days i will resubmit patches 1-7 with the patch
rot removed and the public comments folded into them.
Kenny
