The two MIPS libffi patches have been accepted upstream (i.e. in the libffi git repository) 1.5 years ago for one and 4 years ago for the other. I know there hasn't been any recent libffi release, so what can be done to sync the gcc repository? Would it be possible to stop using that outdated embedded copy and use the debian libffi package instead? Aurelien -- Aurelien Jarno GPG: 4096R/1DDD8C9B aurel...@aurel32.net http://www.aurel32.net
