- GDB 5.0: Test results
- =====================
-
- Please include:
-
- o the output of `config.guess`
- o the date
- o the compiler
- o a note mentioning the reason
- for any serious failures.

- alpha-dec-osf4.0a, vendor compiler, 2000-03-04
-
- Still has many compile warnings (mostly relating back to PTR vs void*)
- but it did compile using:
-
- CC=cc .../configure
- make
-
- Test results are:
-
- # of expected passes 6223
- # of unexpected failures 103
- # of unexpected successes 2
- # of expected failures 196
- # of unresolved testcases 6
- # of unsupported tests 1
-
- Looking at the output it would appear that GDB is stepping into some
- functions instead of ``next'' ing over them:
-
- 35 dummy();
- (gdb) next
- dummy () at /home/cagney/GDB-DEJAGNU/src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/all-types.c:41
- 41 {
-
- Since there is no active maintainer, I'd consider this sufficient for
- 5.0 :-/

- Builds ok. Problems with some of the thread code. Unfortunate but
- not a show stopper. Nick D's still looking at it.
