Update to the GCC 5.5 release.  This brings more than 250 final bug
fixes compared to GCC 5.4 and is the last release planned on the GCC 5
branch which is now closed.

files/patch-aarch64-support, files/patch-disable-armvhf-config.gcc,
files/patch-libgcc-config-arm-unwind-arm, and files/patch-x86-64-fix-m16
all have been merged upstream in between GCC 5.4 and 5.5 and can thus
be removed; the same is the case for most of files/patch-libc++.

Finally, the tarball is now compressed using xz instead of bzip2.

Update to the GCC 5.4 release.

files/patch-build-without-bootstrap and files/patch-gcc-freebsd-powerpc64
(ELFv2 support for FreeBSD PowerPC64) are now upstream, so drop them.

Due to timeing of the release freeze files/patch-armv6-hf-support has not
been integrated in this upstream release yet.

Update to the GCC 5.3 release.

Reestablish the GRAPHITE option.  Still off by default, as originally.

Pet overeager portlint (when it comes to patch format).

 

23:43 gerald 

Update from GCC 5.1 (the first release of GCC 5) to GCC 5.2.

This mostly brings bug fixes across teh board plus, thanks to
andreast@, support for position independent code directly upstream,
so we can remove files/patch-pie-support.

Update to the 5.1 release, the first release of the GCC 5 series.

The default mode for C is now -std=gnu11 instead of -std=gnu89.
New warning options -Wc90-c99-compat and -Wc99-c11-compat may
prove useful on that front.

The C++ front end now has full C++14 language support including
C++14 variable templates, C++14 aggregates with non-static data
member initializers, C++14 extended constexpr, and more.
The Standard C++ Library (libstdc++) has full C++11 support and
experimental full C++14 support.  It uses a new ABI by default.

There have been significant improvements to inter-procedural optimizations
and link-time optimization such as One Definition Rule based merging of C++
types as well as register allocation.

OpenMP 4.0 specification offloading features are now supported by the C,
C++, and Fortran compilers.  Cilk Plus, an extension to the C and C++
languages to support data and task parallelism, has been added as well.

New warning options -Wswitch-bool, -Wlogical-not-parentheses,
-Wbool-compare and -Wsizeof-array-argument may prove useful as
may new preprocessor directives __has_include, __has_include_next,
and __has_attribute.

GCC can now be built as a shared library for embedding in other processes
(such as interpreters), suitable for Just-In-Time compilation to machine
code.  This provides a C API and a C++ wrapper API.

Many code generation improvements for AArch64, ARM, support for
AVX-512{BW,DQ,VL,IFMA,VBMI} and Intel MPX on x86-64, and generally
improvements on many targets.

The Local Register Allocator (LRA) now contains a rematerialization
subpass and is able to reuse the PIC hard register on x86/x86-64 to
improve performance of position independent code.

https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-5/changes.html has a more extensive set of
changes and https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-5/porting_to.html has a solid
overview of issue you may encountering porting to this new version.

This now successfully builds libffi again, so we can enable JAVA by
default on i386 and amd64.

PR:		197171

Update to the 20150125 snapshot of GCC 5.0.  Sadly libffi is still
broken thus Java remains disabled on i386.

Update to the 20150118 snapshot of GCC 5.0.

libgcj-5.0.pc is now properly called libgcj-5.pc; adjust pkg-plist.

libffi is broken on FreeBSD i386 since 2015-01-11, cf.
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=64779, so disable it
for the time being.
