Considering many bug reports concerning ICEs recently, I'd like to
suggest adding the improved error messages for ICEs that have made it
(will make it?) into the main branch.

As part of the "usability group" ;-), how about the gcc/README patch I
have submitted two weeks ago? (I Haven't received any response, though.)

You once thought about egcs-1.1 + patches + new STL becoming 1.2.
Is that still under consideration?
(I didn't notice any problems with the new STL in local projects
nor on egcs-bugs, but I have no strong preference either way.)
