Tried that with some recent ICEs:
* PR 61445 - generated expected repro
* PR 60990 and 61623 - reports "The bug is not reproducible, so it is
likely a hardware or OS problem." (I guess error messages include
pointer values which change across runs and cause this patch to bail out)

Hi,
A years ago there was a discussion (https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2004-01/msg02437.html) about debugging compiler ICEs that resulted in a patch from Jakub, which dumps
useful information into temporary file, but for some reasons this patch wasn't applied to trunk.
This is the resurrected patch with added GCC version information into generated repro file.
How can I test this patch?
I tried applying it and injecting a segmentation fault in to the AArch64 CPU
option parsing code, but I didn't see anything new when the ICE was triggered.
What am I doing wrong?
It is a driver patch, so you get something only when you invoke the driver,
not when compiling with cc1 or cc1plus etc. directly.
Just pick up any known ICE from bugzilla and try it...
