Hmm, seems You dislike my bug-report-style. I did not want to
offend somebody. I know it is a hard work for You to build this compiler.
I just read at gcc.gnu.org that gcc-2.95.3 finally supported hpux-11,
which was wrong.
Maybe it would be helpful, if every webpage at gcc.gnu.org had the
mail address of its maintainers in the bottom line. Then obvious errors
can be first discussed with doc maintainers instead of starting a thread on the
ML.
There is a gap between my experience with gcc and the way things are
described, what else can I do but complain, sth. is wrong?
And in this thread it took a long time until the 4 wrong lines in the docs
were removed ... (thank You Bernd)

P.S.: I never stop complaining until my code compiles on hpux-11.0 :-)
