For those of you who haven't heard, we have available via anonymous
FTP the GNU C compiler for the Motorola 88000. This is the compiler
that is delivered with DG/UX on AViiONs, and is available for use on
other 88k systems.
The following are available via anonymous ftp to dg-rtp.dg.com:

I've rebuilt the set of patches for GCC 1.35 (in pub/gnu/gcc-1.35.patches).
GCC 1.35.12 was the version that shipped with DG/UX 4.10, 1.35.17 is
an interesting (quite stable) intermediate pass, and 1.35.21 is the
version that will ship with DG/UX 4.20. I intend to maintain a
compressed patch kit *.Z or *.tar.Z as well as a set of files that
have been run through uuencode, split, and shar (*.Z.xx). I'll be
glad to respond to mail requests for patches by sending the requisite
set of files.
Files named pub/gnu/gcc-$revision.tar.Z are a complete set of sources.
Generally, only the most recent version is available.
If you'd like to be added to the 88k gnu beta mailing list, just send
me a message. As we make and qualify passes of GCC, I'll be mailing
patch kits to this mailing list.
Our current plans are to qualify GCC 1.36 (finish applying the 1.35
bug fixes to 1.36), and then add Michael Tiemann's instruction
scheduler.

Well actually, it could just be a commentary on the size of the symbol table; here's some size(1) of a local version of emacs called jove: M68020 system text data bss dec hex 105472 25600 107776 238848 3a500 M88k system text data bss dec hex 178176 21504 92308 291988 47494

It includes many other programs, e.g. movemail, documentation files, etc. Also, I believe they used a very large block size in those tar files. Much of that space may be padding NULs. The entire source distribution has LOTS of stuff in it. There are .el files and their .elc equivalents, source control stuff, etc. The emacs binary I'm running on my AViiON workstation is 884736 bytes (stripped), which isn't too bad for emacs. I've seen bigger emacs executables (stripped) on SPARCs and VAXen. The emacs we have on 386's running 386/ix is about 600000 bytes. The smallest GNU Emacs binary I remember seeing was on a Sun 3 - ~ 550000 bytes. Hey, a new dumb usenet contest: Has anyone seen a smaller GNU Emacs binary? To be frank, m88k binaries are generally bigger than 386 or 68k binaries, at least in my experience. Is this generally the case with RISC compilers, which I assume optimize for speed rather than space? >Stanley Chow BitNet: schow@BNR.CA >BNR UUCP: ..!psuvax1!BNR.CA.bitnet!schow >(613) 763-2831 ..!utgpu!bnr-vpa!bnr-rsc!schow%bcarh185 >Me?
