<gbrlwck>oriansj: aha! so (i386:function-locals) just reserves that much space by increasing the stack pointer. yeah, that makes sense. thanks!

<river>I thought there was a bootstrap loop with meson/ninja?
<river>but there doesn't seem to be
<stikonas>river: no, ninja can be built with cmake
<stikonas>cmake has ninja generator but it also has make generator, so there is not loop
<stikonas>and cmake itself has bootstrap script so it does not depend on cmake itself
<stikonas>but I haven't looked at meson yet
<stikonas>it's probably heavy on dependencies but nothing circular
<stikonas>I guess we need python for that...
<stikonas>maybe once fossy build python for live-bootstrap we can build meson there too
<stikonas>in terms of build system loops, I guess autotools are the worst if you don't want to use pre-generated files
<stikonas>at least if we speak of normal common systems and not language specific ones like cargo, maven, etc...
<stikonas>those are usually worse
<gbrlwck>are i386:r-negate and i386:zf->r identical? https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/mes.git/tree/module/mescc/i386/as.scm#n88
