>If there really is no interest in the i370 support, or if the s390 >support supercedes it, let's remove it from binutils. Linas? Martin? The s390 support doesn't really supercedes the i370 support. The i370 assembler has some features that the s390 assembler does not have, e.g. the .using or the .ebcdic pseudo ops. So if anybody really uses the i370 assembler he can't simply switch to the s390 assembler. But I doubt that there is much interest in the i370 support and I don't think that the current version in the cvs works. A lot of work would be needed to get the elf32-i370 bfd backend up to date, in particular shared linking isn't implemented at all. If nobody speaks up remove it. blue skies, Martin Linux/390 Design & Development, IBM Deutschland Entwicklung GmbH Schönaicherstr. 220, D-71032 Böblingen, Telefon: 49 - (0)7031 - 16-2247 E-Mail: schwidefsky@de.ibm.com
