Is there an easy way to update the PPC binutils in ELDK 3.0? Is there an estimated time of arrival for ELDK 3.1?

For thoroughness, I'd like to test a patch on an 85xx board, but don't see a good way to do that yet.

Thanks,

I currently use this for most of my development:

gcc (GCC) 3.2.2 20030217 (Yellow Dog Linux 3.0 3.2.2-2a)

...whichis identical to the tools used in ELDK 3.0 (which actually is based on YD-3.0).

I have heard a rumor of the current code not compiling with GCC 2.95, but have not yet had a chance to verify it. I believe it was a reported problem with an assembler interpretation of a C macro for the TLB_MAS() handling.

Yes. You need binutils 2.14 or later.

See "doc/README.mpc85xxads".

You should plan on uprev'ing to a modern GCC, of course.

Like ELDK 3.1 :-)
