2005-09-17: Note that this is an updated version of elsa-2005.08.22.tar.gz. The only change is to the timestamps of smbase/{s,}objlist.h. I have only tested the new tarball with gcc-2.95.3/x86, and am just assuming that it works elsewhere because elsa-2005.08.22.tar.gz did.

This version has been tested and works with:

• x86/linux-2.4.18/glibc-2.3.1/gcc-2.95.3
• x86/linux-2.4.18/glibc-2.3.1/gcc-3.4.3
• x86/linux-2.4.18/glibc-2.3.1/gcc-4.0.0
• x86/win2k-SP2/cygwin-1.5.17/gcc-3.4.4
• G4/MacOSX-10.3.9/gcc-3.3
• x86/SunOS-5.7/gcc-2.95.2
• sparc/SunOS-5.9/gcc-3.3.2 (almost; see following note)
  Note: In the default configuration of Elsa, it enables the compiler's optimizer, but the gcc-3.3.2 optimizer on SPARC will emit broken exception handling code, resulting in the symptom that make check will fail with a SIGABRT while testing in/t0516.cc. The short-term solution is to configure elsa/ to not use the optimizer:

        $ cd elsa
        $ ./configure -no-dash-O2
        $ make clean all check
      

  The long-term solution is to move the block of code that catches the exception into the notopt.cc module, which I will do before the next release.

This version appears to fail on:

• mingw32: Elsa has not been ported to mingw32, though smbase has limited support for it.

Systems where previous versions of this software have worked, but I am either too lazy or do not have the necessary access to test this version:

• G4/MacOSX-10.3.3/gcc-3?
• G4(?)/MacOSX-10.4.2 (XCode 2.1)/gcc-3?
• x86/FreeBSD-4.9/gcc-2.95.4
• x86/linux-2.4.18/glibc-2.3.1/gcc-3.3.2

If you have results that aren't on this table, or which contradict the table, let me know.
