...er assemblers become available on FreeBSD. That's unfortunately not really the case, though. For example, all of the VFP instructions use newer mnemonics, and the predicated condition code setting arithmetic instructions have changed the order of the 's' and 'cc' suffices (e.g., addseq vs. addeqs). I suspect we'll care about all of them, as we're wanting to handle userspace apps, not just kernel code, here, right? This is the system assembler that's too old. If so, the best answer is to teach the assembler the new mnemonics. To help with that, the majority of the wo...

We're much more in control of our own destiny then. So, how do we solve the problem until then? cheers, --renato
