I need to know the status of the two ports, and any additional information on your experiences with the GCC ports. Any and all information you could provide on anything related to these two architectures, would be greatly appreciated. I tried collecting this information about two months ago, but then I realized how much would, and did, change in that time. I know the FreeBSD port is not anywhere near done, but I would like to know where it is, if anywhere. I'm also trying to draw some conclusions about how branch registers would affect stack overflow attacks, since the return IP wouldn't be on the stack. If you have any ideas about this, once again, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks. ___________________________________________ Jeremiah Gowdy IT Manager - Senior Network Administrator Sherline Products Inc 3235 Executive Ridge Vista CA 92083-8527 IT Dept: 760-727-9492 Sales: 1-800-541-0735 International: (760) 727-5857 Fax: (760) 727-7857 ___________________________________________ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ia64" in the body of the message
