The patch for this bug was committed to mainline on July 6th, 2003, by Roger
Sayle. This means that it will be available starting from GCC 3.4.0. Previous
versions of GCC did not have this patch. If it turns out to be important for
security reasons, you can ask Gabriel Dos Reis (Release Manager of GCC 3.3,
CC:d in this message) for approval to backport the patch to the 3.3 serie (for
3.3.4+). Older release series (3.2 and such) are discontinued now.
