Why was it withdrawn? Was it superseded by another patch? As you present it, this patch is supposed to fix a mis-compilation for PowerPC, but it touches only generic files, and no PowerPC files. > The original thread begins here > (this patch is based on the second version in the thread): > http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2008-10/msg00237.html Following the discussion in that thread explains why this patch is not the correct solution. Would you mind digging up the real patch (if any) that solved the issue? > I have attached a patch for 400-ltrace.sh so > that ltrace will compile for the PowerPC if you want that > too.

It's wrong, as per the thread you pointed to. > Have fun, So do you! :-) Thank you! Regards, Yann E.
