  Sorry for the long absence; I've been busy trying to get 4.6 into shape.
As soon as that branches for release, I'll start making a stable 4.5.2 update.

cheers,

Dave,

Our GCC 4.5 packages has been "experimental" since August.  I have been
running 4.5.1, and now 4.5.2, with only slight modifications to your
patchset since then[1], including an important fix for libgcj[2].  My
latest changes are in Ports git[3].

Since I have been using 4.5 for so long, I find myself unable to upload
many packages to the distro, as many require the newer libraries.  Could
we please have a stable 4.5.2 in the distro soon?

Dave,

If there is anything I can do to help with 4.5.1 in the next week or so,
please let me know.

I suspect it will have to wait until after gcc 4.6 stage 1 closes, at
best, since Dave is currently trying to get some major improvements
merged by that deadline.  Stage 1 closure is now (re)scheduled for "end
of October"; it was supposed to happen this evening.

I finally managed to fix the GCJ tools; what I didn't realize is that
libgcj uses its own NIO code instead of GNU Classpath's.  Patch
attached; this *replaces* classpath-0.98-FIONREAD.patch.

Could we get a timeframe on a stable 4.5.1 including this patch?

gcc: stable 4.5 soon?

2010-10-07 Thread Yaakov (Cygwin/X)
Dave,

I have been using a gcc-4.5.1 built with your 4.5.0 patchset for some
time.  Besides the issues I noted back in August[1], I have been pleased
with its performance.  Any chance we can get a stable 4.5.1 soon with at
least the easier issues noted therein fixed?
