gccfss means 'GCC for SPARC System'

2007/9/12, Andrew Walrond <andrew@xxxxxxxxxxx>:
I have to make buying decisions, and having tested a Sun T1000 for a
while I am impressed with Suns hardware. But, we are 100% gnu/linux and
it disturbs me that David Miller seems to be a (very impressive) team of
1 on the sparclinux ML (My impression; perhaps I am wrong?)

So I wonder, is Sun putting any more effort into developing and
supporting the gcc/binutils toolchain?

Hi,

That's also what I thought at first. Sun putting effort into
GCC on SPARC to the benefit of GCC itself. But this is not
what it seems to be.

As far as I know, GCC for SPARC appears to be a front end
to the Sun Studio compiler which happens to translate GCC
flags to ones suitable for their own compiler.
