[PATCH 1/5] libcc1: Make libcc1.so->libcc1.so.0


Hi,

the next [patch 3/5] will change the libcc1.so API.  I am not sure if the API
change gets approved that way but for such case:
(1) We really need to change GCC_FE_VERSION_0 -> GCC_FE_VERSION_1, this
    feature is there for this purpose.  That is [patch 2/5].
(2) Currently GDB does only dlopen("libcc1.so") and then depending on which
    libcc1.so version it would find first it would succeed/fail.
    I guess it is more convenient to do dlopen("libcc1.so.1") instead
    (where ".1"=".x" corresponds to GCC_FE_VERSION_x).
    That is this patch (with x=0).
    GCC_C_FE_LIBCC is used only by GDB.
(3) Currently there is no backward or forward compatibility although there
    could be one implemented.  Personally I think the 'compile' feature is
    still in experimental stage so that it is OK to require last releases.
    At least in Fedora we can keep GDB<->GCC in sync.

GDB counterpart:
