Hi Peter, Gary,
Hi Ralf, Peter:
* Peter O'Gorman wrote on Sun, Aug 28, 2005 at 03:56:09PM CEST:It also removes the now unnecessary loop to remove convenience libraries from deplibs. This loop was added because of the -all_load flag on darwin and now that there is no all_load flag on darwin it is no longer necessary.When was that loop added? I can't find it now. (And that -all_load is gone for a year, right?)The removal of these loops should speed up link times a little, but I don'thave numbers. Okay for HEAD?* Gary V. Vaughan wrote on Sun, Aug 28, 2005 at 05:55:47PM CEST:Is this actually resolving a bug?We can call it a link execution time regression, how about that?
If it is just backing out an old patch, then maybe I can be persuaded. But otherwise, we need to concentrate on getting 2.0 out (minor bugs and all)!
If not, then HEAD is now frozen[1] until we branch again for 2.0, so you'll have to hold off for a week or two.How much money are you going to bet on the time frame? :)
What odds will you give me? (I have some unused holiday, and a bucket of pro-plus...)
To avoid losing it, feel free to file a TODO at http://tkd.kicks-ass.net/GnuLibtoolProject/ToDo and attach the patch... I'll test and apply it after we branch.
