Thanks. Thought I had to pay for their port. (Like the gcc for c166
port).

Good hint. Will try to remove this manually.

Does it really matter? I'm fairly sure the answer to this is "ARM asked
us to do it".

I remember an era not so long ago when you couldn't get the core
datasheets except by ordering a free demo copy of the ARM ARM on CD and
ignoring the compiler; they weren't even up on ARM's web site.

I don't recall seeing direct download links to the ARM docs on any
vendor sites; not even outside links to ARM's web site. (Not to say
they don't exist, of course).

Please research how to do this correctly via MS documentation first, I
suspect it has to be unregistered to stop Windows attempting to load it on
boot. Your mileage may vary ... on your own head be it if attempting to
remove it manually breaks Windows etc.

If you want a proper supported fix please contact ARM support with the
problem.

The situation with respect to that port is interesting.

It's vaguely possible that they could dump the intermediate respresentation
from GCC and pass that through a closed source back end without violating
the GPL. However if they've made modifications to any part of GCC itself
then they must make an offer of the source to any one they have distributed
a binary to. They are perfectly entitled to only distribute that binary by
selling it.

However they then cannot stop you distributing the modified GCC source to
anyone else, they can only stop you redistributing their separate closed
source components.

The Code Sourcery GCCs are downloadable in both source and binary form and
as I mentioned periodically get folded back into the official mainline GCC.
