What fails? Hm. i checked only xgcc somewhere half way down the bootstrap, and my test program (sizeof(long double)) still yielded 12, so i assumed it doesn't work. i checked a little closer, and it seems that (hah!) the final gcc does have 8 byte long doubles... Thanks! Sorry for the noise ;) regards, markus > > Ian
