1 Dear guys,
2
3 binutils support many modern AIX now.[1] I have tested the binutils on
4 Gentoo Prefix AIX.
5
6 binutils: 2.20.1
7 gcc: 4.2.4
8 configure options need: --disable-largefile
9
10 But he command line syntax of GNU binutils and AIX native utils are
11 quite different. I can just simply use GNU binutils with the Prefix
12 tree.
13
14 Shall we consider to drop native-cctools and support GNU binutils on
15 Gentoo Prefix AIX? IMHO, GNU binutils are more stable and easier to
16 maintain ebuild against.
