Re: [Xen-users] Compiling Xen 4.7.0 with gcc 6.1.1

["Daniel E. Shub" <daniel.e.shub@xxxxxxxxx>]

Xen has been using the 9a93db3f0947484e30e753bbd61a10b17336e20e tag
since 2011-12-20. I wonder if it would be better to just pull in the
GCC 6 patches from upstream (e.g.,
https://git.ipxe.org/ipxe.git?a=search&h=refs%2Fheads%2Fmaster&st=commit&s=gcc+6).

Thanks
