Should work under OSF/1 and Linux. Currently no VMS or NT support, though
|
||
|
|
the latter shouldn't be hard.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Incremental gc not yet supported under Linux because signal handler
|
||
|
|
for SIGSEGV can't get a hold of fault address. Dynamic library support
|
||
|
|
is also missing from Linux/alpha, probably for no good reason.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Currently there is no thread support in the standard distribution. There
|
||
|
|
exists a separate port to DEC Unix pthreads. It should be possible to
|
||
|
|
port the X86 Linux threads support to Alpha without much trouble.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you get asssembler errors, be sure to read the first few lines of the
|
||
|
|
Makefile.

From Philippe Queinnec:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
System: DEC/Alpha OSF1 v3.2, vendor cc
|
||
|
|
Problem: can't link if libgc has been compiled with "cc -std1".
|
||
|
|
It works if the library has been compiled with either gcc or "cc"
|
||
|
|
alone. The problem is because the variable "end" is not defined if
|
||
|
|
compiling in std1 mode (see man ld).
|
||
|
|
Proposed fix: none. Don't use cc -std1 !
