17:23:40stassatsand i have a ppc64 machine, might assist with something
17:26:58dougk__thanks. bbokser created the capstone disassembly tool with similar intent, and i'm actually thinking to use it in lieu of maintaining the disassemblers
17:27:24stassatsand i'd suggest using !cold-init a scratch function for testing stuff
17:27:50stassatsthere's going to be a lot of 32-bitisms
17:28:19stassatsone of the most annoying ones - word-shift being equal to n-fixnum-tag-bits
17:29:47pkhuongdougk__: I've found capstone to be really annoying to build, as a dependency.
17:30:25dougk__sb-capstone in particular, or just in general the 3rd-party project?
17:31:26dougk__and i presume you mean that it would block using it as CL:disassemble, but having no bearing on whether we want to use it for doing new ports
17:32:05stassatsi wouldn't want the current disassembler gone, it already works, so, there's nothing really to maintain
18:27:06pkhuongdougk__: capstone the library itself
18:28:35pkhuongI have no strong opinion on letting the internal disassembler be useful for new ports.
