+ <p><b>Porting to a new architecture:</b> If you are porting the new front-end
+ to a new architecture, or compiling in a different configuration that we have
+ previously, there are probably several changes you will have to make to the GCC
+ target to get it to work correctly.  These include:<p>

 
  <ul>
 
  <ul>

-  <li>Munge linker flags so they are compatible with <tt>gccld</tt>.</li>
-  <li>Change the target so it doesn't have long double; just use double
-      instead.</li>
-  <li>No inline assembly for position independent code.</li>
-  <li>We handle init and fini differently.</li>
-  <li>Do not include inline assembly map things for SPARC, or profile
-      things.</li>
+  <li>Often targets include special or assembler linker flags which
+      <tt>gccas</tt>/<tt>gccld</tt> does not understand.  In general, these can
+      just be removed.</li>
+  <li>LLVM currently does not support any floating point values other than 
+      32-bit and 64-bit IEEE floating point.  The primary effect of this is
+      that you may have to map "long double" onto "double".</li>
+  <li>The profiling hooks in GCC do not apply at all to the LLVM front-end.
+      These may need to be disabled.</li>
+  <li>No inline assembly for position independent code.  At the LLVM level,
+      everything is position independent.</li>
+  <li>We handle <tt>.init</tt> and <tt>.fini</tt> differently.</li>
+  <li>Did we mention that we don't support inline assembly?  You'll probably
+      have to add some fixinclude hacks to disable it in the system
+      headers.</li>
