Hi guys,
my job has kept me very busy in the last 4 months, so I've loose a lot of topics ( mostly all ) of linux-kernel. Yesterday I've installed GCC 2.9.5-1 and I've tried to rebuild some packages of which, in my absence, has been released new versions. As a result a lot of them failed to compile due to a more strict error checking and other issues and some of them got crashed after the rebuild step ! Sad of this behaviour I've jumped to build the new kernels ( 2.2.13 & 2.3.22 ) that compile fine but got crashed ! Now my questions are :
1) What's happened to GCC ?
2) Which way has they choosen to follow ?
3) If a new behaviour has been introduced, why not keep it as a choice ( at least for a bit of transition time ), leaving the maintainers the time to adjust code ?
4) When ( If ?!??! ) GCC will rejoin Linux kernel code ?
Sad but hopefull, Davide.
