Status of Swarm on Mac OS X? (and gcc 3.1 status)

[Marc-Antoine Parent]

Good day!
I know there was some talk here earlier about porting to Mac OS X, and 
it seemed that a big problem was dependency on upcoming gcc-3.1

I checked in the in-progress gcc 3.1 from the active CVS branch, and it 
built with very few hitches. (patches below...)
Would that be enough to get the work re-started on a port?
I'd like to look at Swarm, and I'd love to help, but I am afraid I am 
spreading myself thin between looking at many other ports (notably 
mozart...) Still, you may want to know I used Jim Ingham's port of 
tcl/tk to Aqua, which you were also looking at, if I can be any help 
there.

Thank you and good luck,

Marc-Antoine Parent




I patched in my build directory, so as not to affect the gcc source, 
hence the fact that the diff involve two locations...
The same files, cctype and cstring, are found in both
gcc-build/powerpc-apple-darwin5.2/libstdc++-v3/include
and
gcc-build/powerpc-apple-darwin5.2/soft-float/libstdc++-v3/include
Just copy the patched files.
