<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have "refactored" the X86AsmPrinter into a number
of files ready for the MASM and NASM backends to be added.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>There is a new namespace llvm::X86 to replace the
anomonous namespace as this does not work accross mutiple .h and .cpp files.
Other than that everything is pritty straight forward, t may possibly need
tweeking though.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It has been built under MS VS2003, but I am
not sure how to add it to the makefiles for the Cygwin and Linux platforms, help
on this would be appreciated.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Afaik there are no specific tests for the
X86AsmPrinter. If not it would be good to create some.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Also I am wondering about how to go about creating
tests for the MASM and NASM backends, hints and help are welcomed.</FONT></DIV>
