- Fascinating.
-
- Personally, I'd really prefer that the integration wait until some of
- the kludges are removed from the atari port (specifically, the stuff
- for '\' filename separators, and the crufty environment variable stuff
- for finding GCC executables, ideally that will all be handled in the
- library and via the /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/ARCHITECTURE/VERSION
- mechanism, with allowance for a specs file as well)... no, i haven't
- started working on this myself :-)
