FYI: I am currently looking at a gas problem on IA64 HP-UX. I noticed
that I am getting C++ failures in my GCC build/test runs and it looks
like it is due to one of the changes made to the gnu assembler by
Richard Sandiford or Maciej W. Rozycki on December 1 or 2. I haven't
really got a good handle on the problem yet, but when running the C++
tests using the latest assembler I get a lot of messages like:
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::bad_alloc'
what(): std::bad_alloc
FAIL: 20_util/allocator/8230.cc execution test
The failures always involve 'terminate called after throwing....' and
go away if I use an older assembler.
I would like to understand what is happening and fix it before 2.21
is released.
