Re: someone could port libgc
Some success with libgc. Got slink and potato confused. libgcj (java) and libgc are
available as Debian source. Have built:
libgc4_4.12-4.13alpha-2_hurd-i386.deb (165774Kb) ( C/C++ code only)
It runs the check procedures, and installs OK. Still looking at the Java version.
Will contact the Debian maintainer and post the patches; but first I would like to do
further checking. There are warnings from the Debian build; but I have run out of
free time.
Will check it out this week, and post further details.

Yes, sorry I was writing fast. Have not investigated why make compare does not
work. It only builds if we have the new libc installed.

I know now; interesting.
