gcc 4.8.3 / PR60901

2014-05-22 Thread Kenny Simpson

multiversioning page update?

2013-09-04 Thread Kenny Simpson
http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/FunctionMultiVersioning  says "This support has been checked in to trunk and should be available when GCC 4.8 is released." Since 4.8 has been released, and lists multiversioning support in the release notes, should the page be updated to reflect this? -Kenny
