Xerxes Rånby and I simultaneously decided to try building Shark with Shark today… and both worked!
Gary, this keep working like a charm, I did a successful PPC shark against shark build during last night as well!
[grottan@PowerBookG4 icedtea6]$ ./autogen.sh ; ./configure –enable-zero –enable-shark LLVM_CONFIG=/home/grottan/llvm-2.5/Release/bin/llvm-config ; make clean ; make

So that’s 32- and 64-bit x86, and 32-bit PowerPC known to work, sweet :)
Mhm, I didn’t think that this would be a problem anyway. I built IcedTea6-1.5 with shark enabled 2 weeks ago myself, using 1.4.1 with shark enabled.
Yet the platform isn’t new, this also was on PPC32 using LLVM-2.4.
Great news, but…No new news? ;)
I’ve mostly been working on getting Zero into upstream OpenJDK. Lots of rearranging things, not exactly exciting news ;)
Hey that’s some good news !! ;)
