Yes, I already contacted PGCC coordinator, Marc Lehman and he is quite interested (been working out with him for weeks already). Right now, I am trying to convince some guys at egcs AT cygnus DOT com. I started this patch on 2.7.2.1 source tree and will continue working on it for practical reasons. The Machine Description for 2.7.2.1 is so different than 2.8.x and EGCS so I have to tear myself into three different directions to support them all. Also, 2.7.2.1 is the more widely used non-beta version and the patch only requires minor changes to the source tree (for other MMX-like architectures: VIS/ultrasparc, MAX/parisc2.0, and MAX/axp, no patch is needed) It is posibble on 2.8.x/EGCS (simple changes really) but for 2.8.x I need to talk to Richard Kenner about this (GCC maintainer 2.8.x). If you wanna help out on 2.8.x let me know. Later Hasdi
