Subject:	[ANN] gcc-2.95 dev snapshot updated to 1999-06-26
Date:	Sat, 26 Jun 1999 12:48:47 -0500
From:	Mumit Khan <khan AT xraylith DOT wisc DOT EDU>

I've uploaded GCC-2.95 (upcoming merged egcs and gcc release) 1999-06-26
dev snapshot binaries for Cygwin for those who want to see what's new and 
what's hot.  Since the release of gcc-2.95 has been pushed back quite a 
bit due to the merging of FSF GCC and EGCS GCC, this may be a chance to 
check out the new features without having to wait a few weeks (at the 
very least).

This is *only* meant for developers who may want to try out the newer
features that will be part of the real release (such as the capability
to create COM interfaces); expect problems, bugs, and so on. Please don't 
download unless you're willing to live on the edge.

Changes from 1999-06-09:
  
  - sync with gcc-2.95-1999-06-20 from CVS.
  - fix anonymous struct/union buglet in C++ (thanks to K. Haley for
    reporting this). This was a patching goof on my part.
  - fix for C++ DLLs. Now you can have inline members, virtual functions
    etc in DLL classes that are imported by clients.
  - various tweaks.

Open issues:

  - bitfield packing. Damn this thing. I'm currently testing Donn Terry's
    changes which so far does the right thing, but have yet to run the
    full regression testsuite yet. If things go ok, it'll be in the next
    snapshot whenver that is.

Regards,
Mumit
