[comp.sys.atari.st] gcc and GEM

does gcc require any mods to the aes/vdi bindings (i.e. could i say use my
existing alcyon {aes,vdi}bind libs)? what about calling conventions and
object code compatibility (is the .o file compatible with anything else
e.g. MWC, alcyon, lattice, ...)? does gcc support floating point (there
was a float lib posted recently) or does it need a patch? what about
bitfields and enumerated types? how about compilations speed/executable
size? can gcc compile itself? can any other compiler compile gcc? does
it handle assertions and #line? is it ansi compatible? it has an assembler,
right? will it handle well-behaved madmac/MWC/alcyon/... .s files? is the
link editor memory bound (like aln) or does it use tmp files?

hell, with the src available, i'll be able to get it to do what i want :^)

questions, questions,....so many QUESTIONS!!!

(i won't get my grubby littles paws on this puppy for at least a week...)
