-From: Brian R. Gaeke <gaeke@uiuc.edu>
-Subject: windows vs. llvm
-
-If you're interested, here are some of the major problems compiling LLVM
-under Cygwin and/or Mingw.
-
-1. Cygwin doesn't have <inttypes.h> or <stdint.h>, so all the INT*_MAX
- symbols and standard int*_t types are off in limbo somewhere. Mingw has
- <stdint.h>, but Cygwin doesn't like it.
-
-2. Mingw doesn't have <dlfcn.h> (because Windows doesn't have it.)
-
-3. SA_SIGINFO and friends are not around; only signal() seems to work.
-
-4. Relink, aka ld -r, doesn't work (probably an ld bug); you need
- DONT_BUILD_RELINKED. This breaks all the tools makefiles; you just need to
- change them to have .a's.
-
-5. There isn't a <values.h>.
-
-6. There isn't a mallinfo() (or, at least, it's documented, but it doesn't seem
- to link).
-
-7. The version of Bison that cygwin (and newer Linux versions) comes with
- does not like = signs in rules. Burg's gram.yc source file uses them. I think
- you can just take them out.
