I made a ticket for this issue. We'll look at it as part of the cleanup of config.guess, configfsf.sub and configure.in. Bill. 2009/3/15 Gonzalo Tornaria : > > On Sat, Mar 14, 2009 at 11:07 PM, Jason Moxham > wrote: >> >> >> I volunteer to to do the rewrite.I want to split the x86_64 into these

Should we tar it up and call it rc1? Does make dist remove svn dirs? Does it now touch .c and .h files in demos/calc? Does it name the tarball mpir-1.0.0.tar.gz automatically? We should also test the c++ headers on a couple of systems to ensure we didn't break anything there. I also want to add

I actually don't know what make dist does, never used it. But assuming it makes a tarball, we need to have it make a single tarball for both Windows and linux. It's important that we don't split the project, in my opinion. Bill. 2009/3/15 Cactus : > > > > On Mar 15, 4:02 pm, Jason Moxham wrote:
