* Linaro GCC
Spun release tarballs for Linaro GCC 4.5 and 4.6. Launched the build and test runs. When those completed, briefly checked the results, and launched the package build tests and benchmark runs.
Continued trying to figure out how my NEON 64-bit immediates patch had caused a bootstrap failure. The problem turned out to be an assembler bug ([1]). I've adjusted my patch to work around the problem. This is the only real way to do it given that, even if I fixed the assembler right away, there'll be broken assemblers knocking around for some time to come. The compiler now bootstraps correctly in a manual build. I've submitted it for testing on Michael's systems, so hopefully this patch will be ready to post back upstream soonish.
Continued trying to figure out the neon shifts bootstrap failure. I ran a cross-compiler test suite run, but didn't witness any obvious problems. Launched a manual bootstrap to reproduce the problem (once the board because available after testing the immediates patch), so I should have something to work with next week.
Attempted to merge lp:gcc/4.7 to lp:gcc-linaro/4.7, but got a bzr error. I asked for help on #bzr, and 'jelmer' is looking into it. Apparently the history didn't import in quite the same way as lp:gcc/trunk, or something.
Helped Dmitry Antipov with a relocation (possible) bug.
