I compiled my current GEM project with it and everything seems fine, except for some (known) bogus warnings at -O3 ('array subscript is above array bounds'). Apart from that, compilation time was slightly shorter than with GCC 4.2.3 and the compiled binary is very marginally larger. All in all, I'd say we're definitely on the right track. Thanks for that, Keith, and all the others involved. JFL -- Jean-François Lemaire |
