But they almost certainly need different solutions. Anyway, this all is really becoming silly. I've never said that I wanted to write or maintain such a library. I just don't believe that the gcc people are able to maintain such a delicate interface for so many platforms in a timely fashion given that you will also get requests from the individual system library maintainers which have to be taken into account. You should stop making any incompatible changes before you can show a solution for the problem. Failing to do so, and the current situation is already in the state, means that nobody can really use the current compiler anymore since newly compiled binaries will crash. I suggest to revert any such change and start working on the solution of the interface problem. Then we will see whether you can stand behind your words. -- ---------------. ,-. 1325 Chesapeake Terrace Ulrich Drepper \ ,-------------------' \ Sunnyvale, CA 94089 USA Red Hat `--' drepper at redhat.com `------------------------
