Re: cvs corrruption in gcc/unroll.c


First, an explanation of why anonymous cvs on subversions has been
slow/broken for the past few days.  This is from the front page of
savannah.gnu.org:

   Server exhausted, mldonkey clients charged
       yeupou - Fri 03/07/03 at 05:27 - 3 messages
   The Savannah server is currently exhausted because hundred of mldonkey
   clients are trying to download differents files as servers-list or
   motd (server.met, motd.html, motd.conf, peers.ocl).
   Despite the fact that we now fordib access to this kind of data, it
   still creates tons of http connections and generates lot of CPU usage.

mldonkey is a p2p program developed as a savannah project.  A recent
release of mldonkey contained savannah URL's for its configuration
files, so myriads of mldonkey users are pounding the servers for its
configuration files.  (Literally: one 'myriad' is 10,000, and they
are seeing about 100,000 connections per day from mldonkey users).

I'm just mentioning this because it's relevant news and nobody else
has mentioned it yet.  I don't want to start a big off-topic thread
about it.

My armchair guess, as an outside amateur kind of guy, is that
gcc.gnu.org is fine and that subversions.gnu.org is suffering some
thrashing-induced corruption.
