Re: still no accelerated X ($#!$*)

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

Why does each application/library define its own, incorrect
definition of byte-reversed instructions?  Doesn't some Linux/PPC header
file define this once in a awy that could be imported by others?

I could not find one.  I will look again.

	One cannot use "r" as a constraint for a base address, that is
what the GCC PowerPC port defines "b" for.  The load/store instruction
patterns in the GCC PowerPC machine description file use a different
constraint letter for the base address, and anyone writing inlined
assembly -- especially loads and stores -- should browse the GCC machine
description.

Thanks I will as soon as I find it ;-).  But the assembler generated was exactly
the same in my simple test case.  Is this just luck?

Thanks,

Kevin
