#16107: Update GCC compiler & friends -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: flip101 | Owner: (none) Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.10.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 8.6.3 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Windows | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by Phyx-): I've intentionally not updated them because mingw-w64 have not been able to release the 32-bit version of the toolchain due to a stage3 failure for GCC 8 and now 9. Originally no GCC 8 builds were available, I fixed this with upstream and the 64-bits were released but the 32-bit ones are still failing https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2019-01/msg00178.html which is what I'm working on with upstream now. The problem is I don't particularly want a different toolchain and runtime for the 32-bit and 64-bit toolchains as it'll be confusing for the users but also we don't test the 32-bit ones often, so we'll likely to break it with a different toolchain. If we want to update before the tarballs are released by mingw-w64 we'll have to spin our own binaries disabling the ada bootstrap. the CRT I haven't updated due to a weird behavior with NaN and INF in a testcase, though that may have been fixed now. Haven't checked yet. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/16107#comment:2 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
