arm need some work for Ada to support "ZCX" exceptions, after asking on the gcc@ list I got some people proposal and advices on how to proceed. I tried to build 4.4 with sjlj for arm but exceptions did not work, this was a few monthes ago so may be it's better now. What is your plan exactly? sjlj?

One item left is adding to gnatmake smartness to handle -m flag without needing explicit --RTS=, this will allow testsuite to check multilib for Ada, discussed here but no volunteer yet: http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=5911 Also reported: http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=37703 http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=32548 http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=39172 Thanks in advance, Laurent -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-gcc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
