[M3devel] [M3commit] CVS Update: cm3

[Jay]

Actually it's slightly more real than I said.
One cm3.exe on Windows can do any of NT386/NT386GNU/NT386MINGNU. Sometimes it uses the "extra" code, sometimes not. These are in a sense a limited form of cross build. Granted, if it was only for those three psuedo platforms, you wouldn't mind.

This was deliberate. It enables some cross-build scenarios. That I admit I haven't used (yet?), but I really like the idea.  If m3linker were completed, then "full" cross builds would be real. The "extra" packages are small and build fast (well, at least not using cm3cg...).Is it really so onerous? Really? Isn't it nice to have less filtering of packages as well?Like, when you are building on non-NT386, you can easily see that you didn't break building on NT386, at least partly.?  - Jay
