Now that gcc-4.0.2 is out, is there a patch file for it? (tried 3.4.3, dosen't work)
I am working on it. I have a preliminary patch, which I can provide to anybody who _really_ want it. However it does not work. I have written in a private mail to Frank:
: ATM gpc with 4.0 backend can not bootstrap (I get ICE compiling RTS). I : have run testsuite using RTS compiled using 3.4.3 backend -- on i386 I : get slightly more then 30 test failures. Some are minor but some other : are really critical.
Situation now is similar to the situation in June, I made some progress but the 4.0 port still requires significant effort (and I was busy with other things). I will announce when the port is ready.
