The numbers look really intersting however, to me (someone that has avoided C++ since cfront 1.2) they are meaningless. Why is there the divergence, for instance - where is it comming from. > Column #4 is /usr/bin/gcc (gcc 2.96), which uses v2 abi, + FSF CVS gdb > (2001-02-12). This is the baseline that we have to get back to. [Hmmm, > ovldbreak.exp was working with v2 abi compilers on 2001-01-28 when I > checked it in. I have to look into that]. BTW, we don't have to get back to anything. As far as I know, the failures are being caused by an unlreased version of GCC that has changed its mangler ABI in some incompatible way. It would be nice if the problems were resolved, however, they are _NOT_ a 5.1 release criteria so not especially high on my radar. 5.1 needs to work with real compilers installed on real machines. enjoy, Andrew
