problems adding gcrypt lib (assembler?) to mvpmc...

[stuart-20]

Hi...

I've never added libs to the mvpmc project.  Was wondering if there are
any gotcha's w.r.t. compiling assembler code inside of a lib package?
The lib gcrypt contains assembler code for a number of different
processors.  The ./configure script has linked in the powerpc32
directory for "--host=powerpc".  However, the assembler code is not
compiling for me right now.

...thanks

I couldn't get the assembler code to compile for the iPhone either, so  
I add "--disable-asm" to the configure options so that it compiled the  
c versions of the functions instead.

No kidding - there is C code to replace the assembler?  Argggg!

Hey, is there anyone else doing this on the mvpmc side of the fence? I
could use the help - instead of just banging my head against the
terminal - it would be nice to bounce what works and doesn't work off
someone else.

In the end, I suspect rolling these 3 new libs into mvpmc will make it
much too large.  I was prepared to cut out some mvpmc code here and
there just to test the resulting dongle (i.e. not permanently).
However, it's not going to take many more setbacks to make me think
twice about what I'm doing.  At that point I'll turn my attention on the
proxy and start considering how complex the removal of TLS will be.

Before you start removing TLS from MTP, all that needs to be done is  
add code to check if the connecting backend originates from a given  
secure IP range before dropping non-TLS connections. I'll get to it  
eventually, but I'm working on my iPhone frontend right now.

Thanks
