[racket] Cross compile to PowerPC
Folks,
I've just uploaded an (AFICT) working script to build racket on for
PowerPC.
https://github.com/tim-brown/racket-powerpc-cross
I have racket running on a small embedded P1021 device. From a 300MB NFS
installation! It runs small scripts, and has proven a neat little (ahem!)
tool.
I have 32MB flash on this device; it would be groovy if I could get racket
into 12MB - any hints? (I could keep it zipped up, or something). Just to
give you an idea of what I'm asking:
# ls -l /mnt/nfs2/racket-5.3.3/bin
-rwxrwxr-x 1 1107 500 616 Mar 8 11:52 mzc
-rwxrwxr-x 1 1107 500 624 Mar 8 11:52 mzpp
-rwxrwxr-x 1 1107 500 618 Mar 8 11:52 plt-web-server
-rwxrwxr-x 1 1107 500 7101976 Mar 8 11:41 racket
-rwxrwxr-x 1 1107 500 593 Mar 8 11:52 raco
-rwxrwxr-x 1 1107 500 613 Mar 8 11:52 setup-plt
There goes 7MB, right there!
Also, this is an e500v2 CPU. I heard mutterings about the JIT not working
perfectly with "Book E" processors. What is that all about?
