The intent is for 'make test' to pass cleanly on each platform, and thus easier
spotting of regressions. Linux is best supported by most tests running and
passing. Mac OSX passes mosts tests that do not make/link with binary files,
due to lack of mach-o file support.
!!! I have very limited knowledge of Windows platform, and cannot comment why
all tests(1) fail. I have posted to newsgroup asking for someone to test
Windows platform.
- tests/Makefile:
fix commit de54586d5b
This hunk it unrelated to the other changes (which are about MacOSX).
It is not useful and partially wrong. Optional tests are meant to
stay optional, btest would work only for i386
- tcc.h:
fix commit c52d79605a by unknown
The message says it's for MINTW but the patch has obviously
no effect for MINGW (which defines __GNUC__). However the patch
seems useful for MSC which however needs _strto(u)i64 with underscore.
- Makefile:
fix commit 5280293d6b
Do not build tcc.o with -DONE_SOURCE because we finally build tcc
from tcc.o and libtcc.a/so
Other tests still have issues, currently with weak linking.
One of the primary stumbling blocks on OSX is the lack of support for
mach-o binaries. Therefore all tcc usage on OSX has to be limited to elf
binaries, presumably produced by tcc itself.
Therefore I had to enable building of tiny_libmaker for OSX. Then changed
the make to use tcc and tiny_libmaker to compile the tcclib1.
In order to compile the tests, specifically the parts that use weak linking,
I have had to define MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET to 10.2, which seems like a
hack, but extensive searching seems to indicate that this is the only way
to make apple gcc allow weak linking. Using any other value, bigger or smaller
breaks weak linking.
Also added _ANSI_SOURCE define required by some OSX headers, and some cosmetic
gitignore changes. I believe these changes should not impact other platforms.
Applied patch found on stackoverflow (link below). I also found some
related changes that looked like logically needed. The stackoverflow
changes addressed only two registers which were breaking a compile.
However reading the code in the same file shows two other register
accesses that, while not breaking the build, should have the same fix.

The test driver was changed by changing 'cp -u' into 'cp' as '-u' is not
supported on mac osx.
I found that osx build required the WITHOUT_LIBTCC define. I suspect the
reason for this is tcc unability to handle mach-o files. In order to
properly address this I had to change 'configure' to propagate target os
name to Makefile.
Current state is that simple tests work, but not the whole 'make test'
suite runs.
To the best of my knowledge, these changes should not impact other
platforms.

removed this cp command. However, it was necessary to pass tests on x86-64
because include/stdarg.h is different from GCC's definition on x86-64.
(Because GNU's alloca.h unconditionally #undef's alloca)
Also, remove gcc specific sections in headers. and
instead change tests such that gcc does not use them.
