https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=680572 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=680572#c3 --- Comment #3 from Holger Arnold 2011-03-18 12:03:25 CET --- Emacs was compiled with the gcc45 patch (I only removed the CC=gcc43 line in the spec file). But this patch seems not to contain anything specific to GCC 4.5; it just adds initializations for some local variables. If these variables were accessed before they are initialized, this would be problem with any GCC version. Or was there a bug in GCC 4.5 related to instruction reordering? Compiling Emacs with a GCC version other than the system GCC does not make a difference as long as the ABI remains stable (but this is true for all programs, so why not compile each program with a different GCC version?) Shouldn't we assume that, in the long run, code generated by GCC becomes more efficient and more correct with increasing GCC version (off course, there are local fluctuations ;-). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
