126 Nov, 1999 2 3NetHack 3.3.0 was built with Metrowerk's Pro 4 compiler on a PPC 4system. We are still compiling with 68K alignment because we know 5it works. No one has checked lately if the PPC alignment bug 6still exists. 7 8 923 May, 1996 10 11NetHack 3.2.1 was built with Metrowerk's DR8 compiler on a PPC system. 12The official 68K and PPC versions were compiled with 68K Alignment 13to share files. The 3.2.0 versions were compiled with PPC alignment, 14but it was discovered that the Metrowerks 68K compiler has a bug with 15PPC alignment and structures that can be aligned to a single byte. This 16bug _may_ be fixed in DR10, it is not fixed in DR9. Why bother with PPC 17alignment at all? Because the space saving from 68K alignment is small 18and the PowerPC version will run better. The 68K version was compiled 19with 4 byte ints using the far model. 20 21Only the Metrowerks compiler has been used to compile the code in a 22long time. It is _very_ likely that the other compilers, Think C and 23MPW C, will no longer be able to compile NetHack out of the box. They 24and their files have been moved to the "old" directory until such time 25that someone can compile with them. 26
