78 Bert contributed patches that *should* do the right thing for all the unixish-x86
79 versions of this code for GCC 2.7 or 2.8 vs. EGCS 1.1. He notes that the vtbl
80 scheme is different. He is hoping that others will help test the changes using
81 these two compilers on the various platforms where this same code is used.

148 It is a variation of the IRIS port (only targeted for win32).
149 <p>
150 Notice the last 2 files (the change to mozilla\xpcom\build\makefile.win and
151 mozilla\xpcom\build) are needed because I was unable to figure how to do a
152 "declspecexport" from the assembler ASAXP ... if some knows how to do that then
153 those last 2 files won't be needed.

155 I have had someone look over this code at bridge.com (the entry point to
156 compaq/gem compiler team) and this code was given the OK. I consider it "done".

224 I am attaching a patch which contains my Linux Alpha xptcall code.
225 It passes TestXPTCInvoke and TestXPC on my machine which runs
226 kernel 2.2.7, glibc 2.1.1, and egcs 1.1.2. I have not tested it
227 with older GNU compilers such as gcc 2.8.x. From looking at the
228 Linux x86 code, I gather that the vtable layout is a little different
229 for those compilers and the code will need minor modifications
230 in order to work properly.
231 <p>
232 I am not sure how much of the code can be used for OpenVMS Alpha
233 and/or Digital UNIX. Currently the code is dependent on the g++
234 name mangling convention and a few GNU extensions so I'm not sure
235 how useful it will be for the other systems. Hopefully the
236 comments in the code are detailed enough to help people attempting
237 a port.
