When I run bootstrap and "make check", I check the -m64 option
(only). Check gcc-testresults.
Currently, the results don't look very good. Maybe I'm doing
something wrong.

Brad,
Why don't you try a normal multi-lib build without any
extra flags. At the moment, considering how much noise is on
the testsuite results on Darwin due to this linker warnings, I
don't think its really helpful to bother exploring corner cases
of building gcc trunk with unique flags. Make s

What extra flags? The configure command is
../configure --prefix=/pkgs/gcc-mainline --with-gmp=/opt/local/ --
with-mpfr=/opt/local/
which is totally generic (one need

Brad,
I was confusing your use of -mcpu=970 in the make check with the
build flags...sorry. You might stop using that flag for now until
you get a baseline of how many additional failures seen in -m64
compared to -m32 are not due to the linker warnings (after you
apply the TImode patch). I'll l

Mike,
Do you know if regress is used for anything other than building
and checking gcc? Also is it a dual G5 by any chance? I ask because
it is unclear if regress is doing a 'make -k -j 2 check' or not?
Might that not increase the rate of testing on regress? I haven't
tried that myself because I

Mike,
Well then alternatively, might not 'make -j 2' increase
the rate at which gcc is built on regress? Or doesn't Darwin
support parallel builds? If we can't speed up the testing
then we could at least speed up the build process to free
up time for -m64. After all, we are already building -m6

Yes, we know about -j2. When I said, sorry, nope, I meant to convey
the idea that in fact that adding a -j2 won't speed it up.
Or doesn't Da
Mike,
Now I totally confused. Are you saying that '-j 2' only speeds up
testing but not builds? In one sentence you say it won't speed things up
and in the next you say of course it speeds things up. Which is it?

Sigh, I misstated that one. My comment in that case was about the
general case. I meant to say that -j2 is as applicable to testing as
it is to buil
Mike,
Okay. How about this. Have regress set to at least do
a -m64 make check once a week. At least that would show
some interest in the status of gcc at 64-bit. It is baffling
to most people how we can make any progress on such issues
if the status isn't sampled at least once every blue moon.

I think it is a G4, so testing G5 code-gen might have to wait until
the G5 emulator is done. :-)
Can you contribute G5 results once a week?
At least that

I have only a limited understanding of GIMPLE and LTO, but here are my

Mike,
Sure. I am actually doing a build right now to demonstrate the
baseline we have for c, c++, and fortran with just the TImode patch
and the prune.exp patches I use. Hmm, regress is a G4...surely you
can find a G5 laying around Apple to replace it with since PowerPC
is so passe there (grin).
