Hello Mark,
sorry for tuning in so late to the GCC 4.3 primary/secondary
plattform discussion.
As you probably expect I'll give a vote for s390-ibm-linux-gnu
and s390x-ibm-linux-gnu to be marked as gcc secondary plattforms.
I think the s390 back end is in a pretty good shape. The languages

BTW thanks to the S/390 GCC team for taking the time to identify, report
and sometimes fix Ada-language related bugs on their platform.

In the criteria for primary plattforms I've read that primary plattforms
have to be "popular systems". Reading this as "widely used" I think that
this will be a requirement which mainframes are unlikely to meet in the
near future, so I propose to make s390 and s390x secondary plattforms for
now. I

I would think it perfectly reasonable for the S/390 to be

Another, technical, reason to consider the s390x to be a primary
platform is that it is a different 64-bit big-endian target.
