RC2 is available here: ftp://gcc.gnu.org/pub/gcc/prerelease-4.0.0-20050417/
As before, I'd very much appreciate it if people would test these bits on primary and secondary platforms, post test results with the contrib/test_summary script, and send me a message saying whether or not there are any regressions, together with a pointer to the results. I'll be updating the (now ill-named) http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/Last-Minute%20Requests%20for%204.0.0 page with that information as it comes in. Except for any previously approved but not yet applied RC2 patches, the 4.0 branch is now frozen. Even changes to the documentation need my approval now -- not because I'll have anything to say, but because I might spin the release at any moment, and I don't want to have a situation where we somehow get half a patch. The changes that I anticipate between now and the final release are (a) documentation changes, (b) a patch for 20991, and (c) a possible patch for 20973. Other than that, I will only consider patches that fix egregious problems, like a fail to bootstrap on a primary platform. For a dot-zero release, GCC 4.0 is a nice piece of work. We'll get it out the door in the next few days; then on to 4.0.1... -- Mark Mitchell CodeSourcery, LLC [EMAIL PROTECTED]
