Dear maintainer,

Is it possible to ship gcc7 instead of gcc6 with mingw-w64?
According to https://mingw-w64.org/doku.php/download Arch & MSYS2 already
ships gcc7 which is so useful for accessing C++17 features.

Thanks in advance!

Yours,
BogDan.

Hi BogDan,

Unfortunately libsanitizer isn’t supported on MinGW-w64, and the patches I’ve
been able to find are no longer maintained. I’m cloning this bug and
retitling it so it doesn’t get forgotten...

Regards,

Stephen

Hi Stephen,

It seems there are some _win files in libsanitizer (check https://github.com/
gcc-mirror/gcc/blob/master/libsanitizer/asan/asan_win.cc).
I'll try to add --enable-libsanitizer to configure script to see if it's
working ;-)

Yours,
BogDan.
