Hi Thomas.
TCC on the mob branch has progressed quite a lot. I use it for testing
compilation of gawk (GNU Awk). It is quite fast, which is a significant
pleasure compared to gcc or clang. The released version did compile
gawk but many tests would fail.
I use it on x86_64 Linux. All of the tests compile, but there is a known
issue with relocations when building shared libraries such that two of
the tests based on shared libraries fail.
I personally would love to see that issue fixed before a release, but I
understand that it may not happen. If you wish to test:
git clone git://git.savannah.gnu.org/gawk.git
cd gawk
./configure CC=tcc && make && make check
Thanks,
Arnold Robbins
