[ACTIVITY] Dec.20 -- Dec.26

== GCC related == * Launchpad #693686, GCC ARM segfault ICE when building Chromium in V8. Spent some time reproducing; this ICE seems to be in the maverick gcc-4.5, at the vectorizer phase. As the ICE happens in tree-vect-stmts.c:supportable_widening_operation(), I'm suspecting (without further verification yet) this might be due to vmovn not backported? (Linaro 4.5 does has this ported I think)

* PR44557, Thumb-1 ICE. Looking further after seeing Richard Earnshaw's comment on my patch. It would be nice if we could upgrade the entire secondary reload bits, looking into this.

== This week == * Look into more GCC issues. * Get some backports done.
