Hello.
I'm glad to announce that Guido Flohr and myself got the FSF agreements
to contribute to the official binutils and GCC sources. So I will try to
get the MiNT patches committed into the official sources. This will ease
the maintenance of the patches, especially for systems using modified
sources (Gentoo, Debian...).
First I will work on the binutils mailing list to see if the MiNT patch
is acceptable. Then I will try to get it committed, fully or partially.
When the work is finished on the binutils, I will do the same for GCC.
This will take some time.
I will report the progress here.
