+Here's what's to be done for maintaining GCC.
+
+Apart from the target-specific configuration machinery, there shouldn't be any
+major differences within GCC between the GNU/Hurd and GNU/Linux ports, for
+example.  Especially all the compiler magic is all the same.

+        <gnu_srs1> Hi, I assume gcc -fsplit-stack is not yet supported?

+          https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-hurd/2013-06/msg00100.html
+        <gnu_srs1> braunr: That's exactly where the problem is:
+          src/libgcc/generic-morestack.c:814:__morestack_load_mmap
+        <gnu_srs1> no return value recorded
+        <gnu_srs1> creating a call: page = mmap ((void*)0x0, 0, 4, 2, -1, 0);,
+          returning EINVAL
+        <braunr> lenght of 0 ?
+        <gnu_srs1> yes, __morestack_current_segment, is zero
+        <braunr> mmap is expected to return einval if the requested mapping has
+          a size of 0 ..
+        <braunr> i don't know what split stack is, but i remember it's a
+          problem for the hurd
+        <gnu_srs1> sorry, the address is zero from the above, and the length in
+          the call is zero too
+        <braunr> yes that's what i understood
+        <braunr> and i'm telling you it's normal
+        <braunr> the size is invalid
+        <gnu_srs1> libgcc/generic-morestack.c:  mmap
+          (__morestack_current_segment, 0, PROT_READ, MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0);
+        <braunr> well this is wrong
+        <gnu_srs1> and the error code stays, not being reset in subsequent
+          calls
+        <gnu_srs1> causing an error later on
+        <braunr> as roland says in
+          https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-hurd/2013-06/msg00102.html, it
+          should be possible to support split-stack now that we have tls
+        <gnu_srs1> as thomas reported
+        <braunr> i don't see the relation between split-stack and the mmap
+          invocation
+        <gnu_srs1> tls s in 2.17-97, right? that's the one I tried
+        <braunr> tls is there, but not split stack support
+        <braunr> and libpthread still has bugs related to changing the stack
+          apparently
+        <braunr> fixed upstream but not yet in debian packages
+        <braunr> unless you want to try with the thread destruction packages
+        <braunr> not sure it will change much though

+        <pinotree> gcc on kfreebsd unconditionally defines __GLIBC__

+        <braunr> :/
+        <braunr> personally i don't consider this only "a bit" stupid, as
+          kfreebsd is one of the various efforts pushing towards portability

+        <pinotree> yeah don't tell me, i can remember at least half dozen of

+        <pinotree> sure, i have nothing against kfreebsd's efforts, but making

+        <tschwinge> pinotree: Ack.
+        <pinotree> especially that they would need to fix stuff afterwards

+Different hosts may default to different shells and compiler versions; thus

+
+We're stuck with GCC 4.6 until there are Debian *gnat-4.7*/*gnat-4.8* packages

+This takes up around 3.5 GiB, and needs roughly 3.5 h on kepler.SCHWINGE and

+
+    <dnovillo> jsm28: in your mentor testing, you have the source and build
+      tree available for make check?  or it's a pure installed-tree test?
+    <jsm28> dnovillo: Source tree, install tree, no build tree.
+    <dnovillo> jsm28: so, you run make check on top of the source tree or copy
+      the */testsuite trees to a testing area?
+    <jsm28> Create a site.exp and do runtest in a temporary directory.  runtest
+      is pointed to the source tree to find sources.
+    <jsm28> For cross testing for GNU/Linux targets, the temporary directory is
+      mounted at the same path on host and target.
+    <dnovillo> jsm28: thanks.  i guess i'll have to find the slice of the
+      source tree i need to copy.
+    <dnovillo> jsm28: for libstdc++ do you write a different site.exp? 
+    <dnovillo> i noticed that it generates a different site,exp there.
+    <jsm28> The site.exp is mostly the same for all testsuites (so includes
+      settings that only some testsuites use).
+    <dnovillo> ok, thanks.
+    <dnovillo> and when you say "pointed to the source tree" you mean "set
+      srcdir /path/to/top/of/gcc" ?
+    <dnovillo> (in site.exp)
+    <jsm28> The GDB testsuite requires that you run the GDB testsuite's
+      configure script in the temporary directory where you will run runtest.
+      I don't think any GCC testsuites we use have requirements like that.
+    <jsm28> dnovillo: --srcdir option to runtest.
+    <dnovillo> ah, yes.
+    <jsm28> (and --tool, --target_board etc.)
+    <dnovillo> right
+    <dnovillo> since i'm distributing the tests. i want each node to only do a
+      bunch of files.  this means that i either use 'tool.exp=file-pattern' or
+      simply copy the subset of files i want tool.exp to find.
+    <dnovillo> i chose the second approach, but that breaks in a handful of
+      cases that need files from other sub-directories.
+    <dnovillo> like g++.dg gcc.dg using stuff from c-c++-common.
+    <dnovillo> for libstdc++, the possibilities for splitting are enormous as
+      it has many directories.
+    <dnovillo> but i'm not setting it right.  runtest runs without even trying
+      to test anything.
+    <dnovillo> i'm not having it pick up the right driver.
+    <jsm28> Probably all .exp files should be copied to anywhere running
+      testsuites, since some read .exp files from other directories.
+    <dnovillo> jsm28: that could be it too.  it's irritating that libstdc++
+      does not even error out.  runtest just does nothing and returns 0.
+
+##### IRC, OFTC, #gcc, 2012-06-06
+
+    <dnovillo> any libstdc++ maintainer around?
+    <dnovillo> or, does anyone know when the testsuite/data files are copied
+      into the running testsuite/ dir?
+    <dnovillo> seems to be done in advance by make.
