re: libgcc
I've converted all archs' reach-overs & successfully built them. Next I need
to resolv the conflicts between libc's functions and libgcc's ones. In the
long run, it'd be better to remove libc's functions, but I'll exclude the
conflicting functions from libgcc. This is less intrusive. I'll consider
how to migrate later.
it is not ever going to be safe to remove these entirely from libc.
consider the following case:
- build a binary on netbsd-5 that depends upon these symbols
- run this binary on a netbsd-6 system that only has these
symbols in libgcc, and they won't be resolved.
i'd guess that you need to leave them in libc.so as a weak symbol
for all eternity, or at least until we bump libc.so.
.mrg.
