My apologies for the delay. Yes, this should be safe for the 3.3
release branch, as mentioned in the original approval:
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2005-01/msg01714.html.
The cause of my delay was to investigate whether the code on the
gcc-3_3-branch was significantly different or whether there was
some other reason why this fix hadn't yet been committed there.
If I get a few hours, and nobody beats me to it, I'll try a bootstrap
and regression testing a backport of Jakub's fix myself.
Roger
