It's a 400k patch, uncompressed. Whereas the patch between egcs 1.1 and gcc-2.95 was 6 megs, compressed. My quick runthrough the changelogs in gcc-281.dif didn't reveal any major new optimiziations - mostly bug fixes. Even with the patches, it's still fundamentally the GCC 2.8.1 backend. -- David Starner - dstarner98@aasaa.ofe.org Pointless website: http://dvdeug.dhis.org "I don't care if Bill personally has my name and reads my email and laughs at me.
