I suggest that you ensure that your changes are correct for the baseline
compiler before attempting to modify the optimizing compiler.

You can check if the problems also occur with the baseline compiler by
running the dacapo benchmarks on the prototype configuration manually or
by defining a suitably changed test-run (see build/test-runs/ for the
currently defined ones).

IMHO it's best to provide a single patch file if you want someone else
to look at your changes. The patch should use the unified diff format or
the git diff format. If you're using the diff command, you can use the
-u flag to switch on unified diffs. In case you're using Mercurial for
managing your changes, you can also use the hg diff command (if the
changes are uncommitted) or the hg export command (if the changes are in
committed revisions) to produce a suitable patch.


Kind regards,
