In every release announcement there is a listing of system components like this:...GCC 4.2.1 (+ patches) and 3.3.6 (+ patches)...I searched what are those patches but I couldn't find them. Gcc-3.3.6 ones are important.Actually I diffed original 3.3.6 and openbsd's, and there are lots of changes. Hard to follow what's going on. Seperate patches would help a lot.Any help would be appreciated a lot.
Gcc 3 was only kept in OpenBSD to support the m88k architecture. Last year, miod@ tracked down and fixed the final bug blocking use of gcc 4 on m88k and thus, on 2025-10-23 the gcc3 sources were removed from the trunk of the OpenBSD cvs tree. We're down to just two compilers again!
You can find the final version of those sources
by checking out that date (or maybe the day before) of the gnu/usr.bin/gcc/ directory in the OpenBSD cvs tree.
