2SparcV8 backend skeleton
3------------------------

5This directory houses a 32-bit SPARC V8 backend employing an expander-based
6instruction selector.  It is not yet functionally complete.  Watch
7this space for more news coming soon!

10------------------------------

12All SingleSource/Benchmarks tests are expected to pass.  Currently, all
13C++ tests are expected to fail.  Here are the known SingleSource failures:

15	UnitTests/SetjmpLongjmp/C++/C++Catch
16	UnitTests/SetjmpLongjmp/C++/SimpleC++Test
17	Regression/C++/EH/ConditionalExpr
