To be clear this bug will manifest itself in a binutils that has been built with --enable-targets=all or any binutils that has a 64 bit target in it's target list. Otherwise this will not manifest itself. That is not an immediate problem for natty but it would be good to have the patch in the source base so that we don't accidentally hit this in a cross-compiler or in the cases detailed in the upstream bug report / patch.
The risk of a real package being affected by this bug is low because most packages are built with the native binutils which seems to only target armel and no other target. Looking at a log from a native build of binutils in natty this is how it is configured : ../configure --with-sysroot=/ --enable-shared --enable-plugins --prefix=/usr --build=arm-linux-gnueabi --host=arm-linux-gnueabi --with-pkgversion="GNU Binutils for Ubuntu" --disable-werror --enable-ld=default --enable-gold cheers Ramana -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/772200 Title: Large immediate for neon vmov doesn't work correctly -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
