Byte swapping problem with gcc 2.7.2 cross compiler on Solaris, target m68k.

#6337
From: Erik Bertelsen
Date: Thu, 21 Dec 1995 00:00

10585 bytes
Gcc 2.7.2 produces different assembly code for m68k-apple-netbsd target
depending on the host system for the compilation when compiling the file crt0.c
from NetBSD 1.1 (current).

When gcc 2.7.2 is run on the NetBSD/Mac68k host targeted for itself and
when it is running on a decstation
   ----------------
   # GCC was configured as follows:
   ./configure --target=m68k-apple-netbsd1.1
   echo host=mips-dec-ultrix4.4 target=m68k-apple-netbsd1.1 build=mips-dec-ultrix4.4
   -------------------
it produces seemingly correct output.

When gcc 2.7.2 is hosted on a Solaris 2.3 system and target'ed for the
NetBSD/Mac68k
   -----------------------------------------
   #!/bin/sh
   # GCC was configured as follows:
   ./configure --target=m68k-apple-netbsd1.1 --prefix=/home/gnu
   echo host=sparc-sun-solaris2.3 target=m68k-apple-netbsd1.1 build=sparc-sun-solaris2.3
   ----------------------------------------
it produces bad assembly code.

It seems that it tries to include some code for doing byte-swapping (is
the sparc and m68k of same endian-ness?) after L8:, but this code is
   * not needed, and it
   * causes assembly errors because a $-sign is used to denote an immediate
     value instead of a #-sign.
   * is wrong because it ends up swapping the two bytes in the word.

The rest of this message consists of

- a copy of the source file crt0.c
- a diff listing of the two following files
- a copy of the start of the assembly file generated on Ultrix (good)
- a copy of the start of the assembly file generated on Solaris (bad)
