Hi All, Now, as of yesterday evening, I am able to self host llvm in Release mode on PowerPC and X86! This means, llvm itself is compiled using llvm optimizer and code generator (instead of GCC) and generated llvm passes all tests in llvm/ test directory. - Devang

That's wonderful news. Now we just need a "bootstrap" target for the Makefiles :)> > - > Devang > _______________________________________________ > LLVM Developers mailing list > LLVMdev at cs.uiuc.edu http://llvm.cs.uiuc.edu > http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/mailman/listinfo/llvmdev

If not then as usual, use 'gcc' as CC by default. (and same for CXX). I am not sure how to achieve this. Since llvm-gcc FE resides in separate source repository, 'make bootstrap' does not make sense unless both projects are checked out properly. BTW, GCC community is moving away from 'make bootstrap' for GCC builds. GCC 4.2 build bootstraps by default unless it is disabled at configuration time. - Devang
