[Sbcl-devel] New patch for linux/ppc.

[Joslwah <jo...@gm...>]

This partch fixes various problems with linux/ppc callbacks and
callouts.  Issues fixed include:

Trashing of stack on callbacks.
long longs being passed in all positions, and alignment issues.
long longs being returned (basically merging darwin case with linux
case).
floats in excess of 8 being passed.
Added some extra tests to foreign.test.sh to check awkward corner cases.


Not fixed:
Changing #!-darwin to #!+linux throughout src/compiler/ppc/c-call.lisp,
to make it clearer that the current options and cases are darwin and
linux rather than darwin/not-darwin.


Please can this be included before the next release?  Comments
appreciated.
