m68k: Fixed bug with shiftisdiv on big-endian hosts.
PPC: Optimized memcmp() in vclib and as assembler-inline.
vclib: Fixed snprintf() and vsnprintf() for sizes exactly matching the source.
vclib atari: Made gem.h compile without warning in ANSI/C89 mode.
vclib kick13: Support for 16-bit int. New config files.

Just can't stay away Joined: 07/14/2007 From: Lothric Comments: 1691	Re:vbcc 0.9g released Installation was simple and there seems to be some nice documentation included. I haven't used VBCC for many, many years, so I stumbled into a print format issue where %f/%g were not working. Compiling and linking with +newlib made it work.

Just can't stay away Joined: 11/30/2006 From: Finland Comments: 1881	Re:vbcc 0.9g released @Capehill With the default vbcc c-lib you need to link with -lm to get floating point support, same as with clib2 (with gcc). Only newlib is different and has floating point enabled always (there is a libm.a but it's empty).
