Resent due to HTML rejected. Hi, I am the original patch author. I submitted the patch to the mailing list but received no response from a maintainer. I am using the sbc codec in an embedded project and have to maintain other patches for it anyway, so it was of low priority to get the fix merged for me. I previously submitted another arm related patch to the sbc library and it was also not merged (although it did get an initial response, just no follow through). I get the impression the maintainers are simply busy elsewhere - the sbc library code has remain unchanged aside from a single line bugfix since 2014. I also submitted a bug to gcc, since the issue was clearly a regression in a newer compiler version. You can find that bug here: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=85593 There was actually a patch made for the bug recently - so it may soon be resolved in gcc trunk. Although that doesn't do much to fix the issue for anyone using the compiler they have today. I have not had opportunity to test the patch for gcc to see if it does indeed fix the issue in the sbc code unfortunately. Cheers, Austin Morton
