2003-09-16 Andrew Cagney * ppc-linux-tdep.c (ppc_linux_init_abi): Set the 32 bit "use_struct_convention" to "ppc_linux_use_struct_convention". (ppc_linux_use_struct_convention): New function. * rs6000-tdep.c (rs6000_use_struct_convention): New function. (rs6000_gdbarch_init): For AIX, set "use_struct_convention" to "rs6000_use_struct_convention". * ppc-tdep.h (ppc_sysv_abi_broken_use_struct_convention): Delete declaration. * ppc-sysv-tdep.c (ppc_sysv_abi_broken_use_struct_convention): Delete function.
