Other tests still have issues, currently with weak linking.
One of the primary stumbling blocks on OSX is the lack of support for
mach-o binaries. Therefore all tcc usage on OSX has to be limited to elf
binaries, presumably produced by tcc itself.
Therefore I had to enable building of tiny_libmaker for OSX. Then changed
the make to use tcc and tiny_libmaker to compile the tcclib1.
In order to compile the tests, specifically the parts that use weak linking,
I have had to define MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET to 10.2, which seems like a
hack, but extensive searching seems to indicate that this is the only way
to make apple gcc allow weak linking. Using any other value, bigger or smaller
breaks weak linking.
Also added _ANSI_SOURCE define required by some OSX headers, and some cosmetic
gitignore changes. I believe these changes should not impact other platforms.
Applied patch found on stackoverflow (link below). I also found some
related changes that looked like logically needed. The stackoverflow
changes addressed only two registers which were breaking a compile.
However reading the code in the same file shows two other register
accesses that, while not breaking the build, should have the same fix.

The test driver was changed by changing 'cp -u' into 'cp' as '-u' is not
supported on mac osx.
I found that osx build required the WITHOUT_LIBTCC define. I suspect the
reason for this is tcc unability to handle mach-o files. In order to
properly address this I had to change 'configure' to propagate target os
name to Makefile.
Current state is that simple tests work, but not the whole 'make test'
suite runs.
To the best of my knowledge, these changes should not impact other
platforms.
We no longer use CVS, so let's teach Git about what files to ignore...
... though doing `git status` after make + `make test` still gives
untracked content:
# Untracked files:
# (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
#
# alloca86-bt.o
# alloca86.o
# bcheck.o
# libtcc.a
# libtcc.o
# libtcc1.a
# libtcc1.o
# tcc.o
See next patch about this stuff.
