You moved this code:
fprintf (stderr, "Please submit a full bug report, with preprocessed source\n");
fprintf (stderr, "if appropriate. See %s for instructions.\n", GCCBUGURL);
into fatal(), such that now all calls to fatal() request a bug report,
whereas previously they would just exit.
I'm pretty sure it was that at one point.
For instance,
fatal ("virtual memory exhausted");
should probably not request a bug report.
No, but I don't see any that shouldn't in the compiler. The only
occurrences of the above that I can see are in the gen*.c files, which
link with a different "fatal".
