in getting mirror-2.3 to work with FreeBSD, i found that timelocal.pl has
a bug. a patch is included below. this needs to be applied to both
src/gnu/usr.bin/perl/lib/timelocal.pl and
src/usr.sbin/xntpd/scripts/monitoring/timelocal.pl

already C++ safe, or C++ header files.
This fixes the problem with parse errors in header files when compiling C++
files.
Recompiling libg++ also solves the undefined synbols problem.
Notice that the libgcc DOESN'T change number, because there are no
changes.
Also now the gnu2bmake stuff is synchronized again.
I commit this so that others can test too.
You might want to postpone any "make worlds" until tomorrow, to
avoid any problems I didn't see in the first pass.
Thanks to Bruce for rounding up our changes to gcc.
more like binaries. This is hard to do using a general rules because
the natural `.sh:' rule has a null suffix and null suffixes are broken.
(With 1.1.5's make they sometimes work and sometimes cause core dumps.
2.0's make has a botched fixed and they never work.)
profiling and wchar_t. Profiled libraries will shrink.
tm.h:
Our wchar_t is int, not unsigned short.
Always link statically if profiling.
Define all the SPECs together.
final.c, tm.h:
Don't emit unused profiling code and data.
aux-output.c:
Always preserve the PIC register if profiling.
aux-output.c, tm.h:
Implement FUNCTION_PROFILER_EPILOGUE (currently not used).
New:
tm.h:
Set the target defaults in the correct way.
I know that many of these entries are bogus and need to be revisited,
but let's get the tree working again for now and then do a pass through
looking at all the __FreeBSD__ entries, shall we?
GCC-2.6.1 COMES TO FREEBSD-current
----------------------------------
Everybody needs to 'make world'.
Oakland, Nov 2nd 1994. In a surprise move this sunny afternoon, the release-
engineer for the slightly delayed FreeBSD-2.0, Poul-Henning Kamp (28),
decided to pull in the new version 2.6.1 of the GNU C-compiler.
The new version of the compiler was release today at noon, and hardly 9
hours later it was committed into the FreeBSD-current source-repository.
"It's is simply because we have had too much trouble with the version 2.6.0
of the compiler" Poul-Henning told the FreeBSD-Gazette, "we took a gamble
when we decided to use that as our compiler for the 2.0 release, but it
seems to pay of in the end now" he concludes.
The move has not been discussed on the "core" list at all, and will come as
a surprise for most Poul-Hennings peers. "I have only discussed it with
Jordan [J. K. Hubbard, the FreeBSD's resident humourist], and we agreed that
we needed to do it, so ... I did it!". After a breath he added with a grin:
"My email will probably get an all time 'disk-full' now!".
This will bring quite a flag-day to the FreeBSD developers, the patch-file
is almost 1.4 Megabyte, and they will have to run "make world" to get
entirely -current again. "Too bad, but we just had to do this." Was
the only comment from Poul-Henning to these problems.
When asked how this move would impact the 2.0 release-date, Poul-Hennings
face grew dark, he mumbled some very Danish words while he moved his fingers
in strange geometrical patterns. Immediately something ecclipsed the Sun, a
minor tremor shook the buildings, and the temperature fell significantly.
We decided not to pursure the question.

JOB-SECTION

Are you a dedicated GCC-hacker ?
We BADLY need somebody to look at the 'freebsd' OS in gcc, sanitize it and
carry the patches back to the GNU people. In particular, we need to get
out of the "i386-only" spot we are in now. I have the stuff to take a
gnu-dist into bmake-form, and will do that part.
Please apply to phk@freebsd.org

Perl's scripts are still trying to execute perl out of /usr/gnu/bin/perl.
The hack Larry was using for h2ph.1 doesn't work with the new macros, so
make it a real man page.
Also, we weren't building the .ph files, add them as an afterinstall rule
in the x2p subdirectory.
and /usr/share/perl (library). The latter was chosen as analogous to other
directories already present in /usr/share, like /usr/share/groff_font and
(particularly) /usr/share/mk.
