+                            Martin Tauchmann's notes             (1-Apr-99)
+ ===========================================================================
+ Works now, also with the GNU-C compiler V2.7.2.1. <ftp://ftp.unina.it/pub/amiga/geekgadgets/amiga/m68k/snapshots/971125/amiga-bin/>
+ Modify the `Makefile`
+ CC=cc $(ABI_FLAG)
+ to
+ CC=gcc $(ABI_FLAG)
+ TECHNICAL NOTES
+ - `GC_get_stack_base()`, `GC_register_data_segments()` works now with every
+    C compiler; also Workbench.
+ - Removed AMIGA_SKIP_SEG, but the Code-Segment must not be scanned by GC.
+ PROBLEMS
+ - When the Linker, does`t merge all Code-Segments to an single one. LD of GCC
+   do it always.
+ - With ixemul.library V47.3, when an GC program launched from another program
+   (example: `Make` or `if_mach M68K AMIGA gctest`), `GC_register_data_segments()`
+   found the Segment-List of the caller program.
+   Can be fixed, if the run-time initialization code (for C programs, usually *crt0*)
+   support `__data` and `__bss`.
+ - PowerPC Amiga currently not supported.
+ - Dynamic libraries (dyn_load.c) not supported.
+ TESTED WITH SOFTWARE
+ `Optimized Oberon 2 C` (oo2c) <http://cognac.informatik.uni-kl.de/download/index.html>
+ TESTED WITH HARDWARE
+ MC68030
+ CONTACT
+ Please, contact me at <martintauchmann@bigfoot.com>, when you change the
+ Amiga port. <http://martintauchmann.home.pages.de>
