Call for Testers: VTA debug info is usable

2008-08-12 Thread Alexandre Oliva
I've just installed a number of patches to var-tracking-assignments-branch and var-tracking-assignments-4_3-branch, which bring them to passing compare-debug for all object files in both the bootstrapped compiler and the target libraries on x86_64-linux-gnu, i686-linux-gnu and ppc64-linux-gnu with
