Both GCC and gcc are used, so why do we need to choose for EGCS?
I tend to use EGCS when describing the project and egcs when referencing
releases, mailinglists, hostnames, URLs, etc. Personally, I find Egcs (as
would be required by capitalization rules) quite ugly, so I use EGCS in
those instances. It's an acronym.
