And during these years, how many bug reports did you file? It is people with your attitude who are to blame for this state. Hey, this is community work. If you submit a patch and the respective maintainer or somebody else rejects it for some reason or another, what will you do? If you want to have this patch included you negotiate and co-operate. If a tool is broken what do you do? You give up and don't even attempt to provide useful feedback. There are tons of examples of really stupid developments all around because people don't even attempt to fix the problems at the origin, but rather accept it "gcc has always behaved like that". Sorry for my uproariousness, but this really gets on my nerves. > > Maybe we should do that? > > looks like we already do, and you added it for precisely this reason (Aug > 2009). i guess the OP is using an older version of u-boot which is why it's > still a problem for him ? Yes, that's what I guess, too. > kind of makes this whole thread pointless noise ... sorry about that Me too.
