Can you send me a list of the ones that are missing?

Thanks so much.

Now for the status report-- what's missing (volunteers highly welcome,
so we can get this in time for 3.1):

        - darwin varargs abi changes (stan shebs)

        - vector_size attribute (done, testing patch)

        - __builtin_types_compatible_p for overloaded functions in C
          (done, but i need to correct lots of documentation and
          testing issues that Joseph pointed out).

        - provide altivec.h with overloaded functions, etc (undone)

        - vector initializers (undone)

        - DWARF_FRAME_REGISTERS: fix usage of this throughout the
          compiler to be an expression, not a constant.   Eg.  Stuff
          like "int foo[DWARF_FRAME_REGISTERS]" to use alloca. (undone)
cheers
