[Llvm-bgq-discuss] Fwd: [Early-users-discuss] C++11 compiler?

[Hal Finkel]

Michael,

FYI, this also applies to your lowercall64svr4.c test case. I'll be releasing a newly-rebased compiler soon with all of these fixes incorporated.

Thanks again,
Hal

Erik,

I've fixed this in my local repository; so this will be fixed in the next patchset release.

Thanks again,
Hal
