---------------
Wrapping gcc34-pr23591.patch with a %ifnarch sparc64 allows gcc-3.4.6-3.src.rpm
to compile, obviously without that patch installed.

Comment 1 Jakub Jelinek 2006-08-03 16:45:16 UTC

Well, it would be better to just patch binutils so that it supports TLS on
sparc64 (e.g. FC5ish, maybe even FC4ish binutils support that already) and
glibc to support NPTL on sparc64 as well.
In any case, the changes are too large to be added to RHEL4 updates, so you
should keep them as CentOS specific changes.  RHEL5 based stuff should work.
