Hello, folks,

a new GPC snapshot is available:

ftp://agnes.dida.physik.uni-essen.de/gnu-pascal/alpha/gpc-19991030.tar.gz

As usual: Source only; nothing guaranteed.

Main changes since the last snapshot (19990813):

* Works with gcc-2.95.x.

* In preparation for a integration into GCC, most patches to the GCC backend have been obsoleted and removed. The remaining ones will either vanish, too, or be integrated into GCC.

* The set-handling routines have been re-written. Set operations are handled in the RTS and should be more stable now.

* Some problems with packed arrays on big-endian machines have been solved.

* `-dY' is now `--debug-source'.

* New options `--[no-]transparent-file-names'.

* ... and much more.

Have fun,

Peter
