C

I have started to clean up certain code of FreeBSD userland I interest or use at company, to make them WARNS=6 clean. A patchset separated by categories would be posted on my home directory at freefall right after I have a preliminary test.

Ruslan has suggested that I should have used ``make universe’’ to test my patches and I’ll try this on some 1750 boxes - my laptop is too slow and its hard disk is too small to finish a full make universe build :-)

ZHAO Xin (a colleague of mine) has pointed out that GNOME Simplified Chinese does not did a good work when displaying time. He then filed ports/72722 and ports/72723.

Adam Weinberger (adamw@, one of the major FreeBSD GNOME maintainers) has then pointed out that it might be better to contact the Simplified Chinese Translation team. In a private mail, I have explained that the root cause of the issue, however, is that our libc implementation does not implemented the GNU Extensions, say, the -_^0 extensions of strftime(3). Adam have then kindly approved that the patches should be committed, and we should have a long-run solution then finally remove them.

As title. With Alexenda Kabbev’s import, we now have gcc 3.4.x in the base system. I’ll try to adopt our code ASAP.

As Scott Long clarified, 5.3’s RE will start on August 15. Alexenda Kabbev today announced the import of gcc 3.4.x snapshot will happen soon.

Yes, I am not joking, this will happen soon!! Yeah!!

发现VC上面偶尔会用到的const_cast在gcc (c++)里面竟然不能用，郁闷，遂采用C-style cast，但我希望修正这个问题。

Yesterday someone has asked me about my diary system, I told her that my diary is managed by my own diary software, which is a close-source system (written in C#) and I do not want to share it with others because it is technically not a friendly one.

It’s our pleasure to see GCC 3.4 import to be listed in FreeBSD 5.3-R todo list. Unfortunatelly, gmake is now a required prerequisite when building GCC 3.4, this may slow down the import progress.
