	I think I'm the responsible for suggesting that and promised 
to try to gather sthg... Unfortunately, I have not gone very far up 
to now (but I'm still willing to do sthg about it). I do not have 
much time currently but will definitely try to contribute one in a 
(close?) future. What would be the proper format however ? texi or 
html. Having it online would certainly be great... Having it in the 
manual would be great too... This applies as well to Philipp's 
proposal AFAICT.

However, I believe that what Philipp suggested however is a little 
different in that he is targetting more gcc's users than developper's
(well beginners in gcc development :-) ). Maybe two different sections
(web pages) ?
