------- Comment #2 from fxcoudert at gcc dot gnu dot org 2006-10-10 08:13 ------- I'm very interested in that. I think it would really benefit the compiler: the Fortran front-end would gain much in stability (and ease of installation) and the C front-end could also benefit from this (as mentionned in PR29335).
What's worrying me a bit is the versioning of MPFR. I'm writing it here because Vincent is in the Cc list of this bug, so maybe he can answer. The last MPFR release is dated 2005-09-09, and since then only patches without version information have been posted. That means we have no way to identify the MPFR library used exactly, to work around potential bugs or require fine-grained minimal version. Vincent, would it be possible that some version number is increased every time a patch is posted, so that the current version would be 2.2.16 or something like that? -- fxcoudert at gcc dot gnu dot org changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |fxcoudert at gcc dot gnu dot | |org http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29405
