[llvm-dev] [cfe-dev] Fwd: Raising CMake minimum version to 3.4.3

[C Bergström via llvm-dev]

I'm not sure if they are doing an x86 to IA64 cross compile, but in
any event I'm going to guess they may need an ancient version to avoid
any C++11 dependencies. In terms of IA64 compilers you have afaik 3
choices HP compiler, Open64 and Intel? (Does gcc still support it and
how up-to-date or EOL is the Intel compiler IA64 support?)

I really hope nobody decides not to move to a more recent version of
cmake because of IA-64.
