19		Description:
20
21		X86RA now uses a valid (instead of dummy) PrintFlowgraph module.

29		The representation of a program point never expected to see more
30		than 65536 instructions in a basic block!

35		Tag: george-20011008-mlrisc-labels
36		Description:
37
38		Changed the machine description files to support printing of
39		local and global labels in assembly code, based on host assembler
40		conventions.

45		Tag: blume-20010925-exninfo
46		Description:
47
48		I provided a non-hook implementation of exnName (at the toplevel) and
49		made the "dummy" implementation of exnMessage (at the toplevel) more
50		useful: if nothing gets "hooked in", then at least you are going to
51		see the exception name and a message indicating why you don't see more.
52
53		[For the time being, programs that need exnMessage and want to use
54		ml-build should either use General.exnMessage (strongly recommended) or
55		refer to structure General at some other point so that CM sees a
56		static dependency.]
57
58		[Similar remarks go for "print" and "use":  If you want to use their
59		functionality in stand-alone programs generated by ml-build, then use
60		TextIO.output and Backend.Interact.useFile (from $smlnj/compiler.cm).]

65		Tag: blume-20010920-slowfp
66		Description:
67
68		Allen says that x86-fast-fp is not safe yet, so I turned it off again...

73		Tag: blume-20010920-canonicalpaths
74		Description:
75
76		0. Updated the BOOT file (something that I forgot to do earlier).
77
78		1. Small internal change to CM so that it avoids "/../" in filenames
79		as much as possible (but only where it is safe).
80
81		2. Changed config/_run-sml (resulting in a changed bin/.run-sml) so
82		that arguments that contain delimiters are passed through correctly.
83		This change also means that all "special" arguments of the form
84		@SMLxxx... must come first.
85
86		3. Changed install script to put relative anchor names for tool commands
87		into pathconfig.

102		Description:
103
104		Fixed mistake in config/preloads. Retagged as 110.36.

110		Description:
111
112		New version (110.36).  New bootfiles.

117		Tag: blume-20010914-x86fastfp
118		Description:
119
120		John committed some changes that Allen made, in particular a (hopefully)
121		correctly working version of the x86-fp module.
122
123		I changed the default setting of the Control.MLRISC.getFlag "x86-fast-fp"
124		flag to "true".  Everything seems to compile to a fixpoint ok, and
125		"mandelbrot" speeds up by about 15%.

128		Name: Matthias Blume
129		Date: 2001/09/13 11:20:00 EDT
130		Tag: blume-20010913-minimal
131		Description:
132
133		1. Stefan Monnier's patch to fix a miscompilation problem that
134		was brought to light by John Reppy's work on Moby.
135
136		2. Implemented a minimal "structure Compiler" that contains just
137		"version" and "architecture".  The minimal version will be
138		available when the full version is not.  This is for backward-
139		compatibility with code that wants to test Compiler.version.
