Thanks, this fixes a long standing problem with our FAQ and I'm glad we
even have this ready in time for GCC 2.95!


As a general note, we prefer to receive indepent changes as separate
patches, i.e., in this case I would have prefered a "markup patch", a
"move patch" and a "libstdc++-v3 patch".


I have closely reviewed the faq.html patch and also the specific.html
patch (though I did not actually check that you have not modified any
word ;-) while moving entries from the former to that later) and
installed both.

BTW, have you forgot to mention the addition of a index to specific.html
(which definitely was a good idea considering the increase in the size of
that page), or was that a test of my accuracy when doing reviews ? ;-)


David, Jim, as I had mentioned in private mail, we have now moved a
couple of installation notices concerning your targets from the FAQ to
install/specific.html. Would you mind double checking these?

Thanks!
Gerald
