These files contain new-style function definitions with (void), which 
isn't currently OK for the mainline for files used in stage1.

They say "GNU CC" rather than GCC.

There are many functions in these files without comments at the top
explaining what they do.

For inclusion in mainline, documentation in invoke.texi (of the
command-line option) and passes.texi (of the source files) is needed.

Are there any known patent issues with this code?
