And why is this inofficial? Do these patches break the compatibility with gcc 2.95? (My private patch is compatible with gcc 2.95 and 3.3 as I introduced a macro in mint/osbind.h: > #if __GNUC__ >= 3 || __GNUC_MINOR__ >= 3 > #define CLOBBER_RETURN(a) > #else > #define CLOBBER_RETURN(a) a , > #endif which removes the "clobbered" return register from the clobber list. I don't know if the version check is appropriate (i.e. do gcc < 3.3 also have this difference?) but it works for me. IMO this version should still compile fine with gcc 2.95. Philipp
