Yup. Even though Brian (and many otheres with him) is right that
RedHat pulled a terrible stunt with this compiler-"release", they seem
to have landed the thing on its feet, not least due to very bright
people like Jakub Jelinek who have been handling the reports of
compiler bugs we triggered entirely sensibly.

(I still remember the bug in the "cb" C beautifier program which could
turn 1e-6 into 1e - 6 which the complier parsed as 1 - 6 = -5.  I
reported that one to HP only to find it again years later in Solaris
based on the same codebase...)
