llvm-gcc4_2

hi!

i fixed some major bugs in the llvm-gcc4_2 patch since my last post.
this brings me to an interesting question:

what are your criteria to use my patch for further development?

at the moment i use the llvm-test1.9 suite for testing, because the
actual llvm-test trunk in the repository seems to be broken.
in my configuration the official llvm-gcc4 does not run completely error
free against this suite (or is this my configuration fault?).
so i guess a 100% error free run against the testsuite will not be the
criteria.

kind regards
peter

I have no fixed criteria. I think the best solution is for the work to be checked into the (forthcoming) public SVN server. When it is available, you can check it in there and we can all hack on it together. Even if it has serious bugs or known deficiencies, I see no problem in that.

Hrm, that's strange. llvm-test doesn't pass 100% (e.g. some of the EH stuff is now working yet), but it should ahve basic functionality. What is broken?
