--- 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...) -bill
