== String routines == * Copied an improvement I'd previously made to memchr (removing a branch using a big IT block) to strlen * Modified benchmark setup to build everything as a library to fairly give everything a PLT overhead. * Pushed optimised memchr and strlen and simple strchr into cortex-strings bzr repo * Patched eglibc to use memchr and strchr code - although currently fighting to get appropriate .changes file
== ffi == * Kicked off TSC request for license permissions
== bugs == * Built and recreated the qt4-x11 bug, produced all the dumps and boiled it down to a few lines of suspicious RTL for Richard.
** Away next week.
