FWIW, next-20140808 build results on my build/test farm: total: 132 pass: 120 fail: 12 Failed builds: frv:defconfig mips:nlm_xlp_defconfig openrisc:defconfig powerpc:allmodconfig (binutils 2.23 and 2.24) powerpc:mpc83xx_defconfig (ditto) powerpc:mpc85xx_defconfig (ditto) powerpc:mpc85xx_smp_defconfig (ditto) unicore32:defconfig with qemu test runs failing for arm, mips, mips64, and ppc. Which points to the next problem: I simply do not have the time to track down all those failures, and I would guess neither do others who might be interested. Geert is doing an excellent job trying to report and fix things, but quite frankly sometimes one feels like Sisyphus trying to keep builds clean. Guenter
