Jim asked about GnuStep; Well-- a complete set of GnuStep packages have been built by Karl Sackett and are awaiting my work on gcc [an attempt to fix a crasher in the optimizer that causes the base GnuStep library to NOT be built with optimization-- UGH!] before release.
Now that I have an answer on the libc front (ie; 1.2 will ship with 5.4.7), I'm going to reboot to Linux and produce 'official' 5.4.7 compliant GCC 2.7.2.1 + GnuStep Threading Patches in short order. BTW: For now, I'm using the built in MIT_POSIX_THREADS. Who is maintaining LinuxThreads-- it seems like a superior package and I would like to move to it as soon as possible... BUT: If I move to using LinuxThreads, gcc will DEPEND on the LinuxThreads package. Does that offend anyone? b.bum -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Trouble? e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
