gcc-2.7.2.3-9.src.rpm

Package: cyrix

Updated: 29-Dec-1997

Problem:

(05-Dec-1997) Cyrix processors may have sig 11 and other problems.
(29-Dec-1997) Fixes problems involving sig 11 during compiling on
older
Cyrix chips.

Solution:

Intel: (Note: this is _not_ an official update, nor is it PGP-signed
by
Red Hat. Rather, this is for people who have older Cyrix chips, and
