We got stuck half-way with the peephole stuff though, from what I remember. I wasn't aware of SDCC participating in the GSoC program. I did actually 2 rounds of GSoC back then with GCC. I'd be great if the half-finished peephole work could be completed. If there are any GSoC candidates I might be able co-mentor. Best regards, Oleg Endo |
