Personally, and explicitly not speaking for my employer, I fully agree
with Andrew Pinski that this kind of change is not appropriate for GCC
4.1 at this point in the release cycle.
It is clearly against our development model and negatively impacts our
schedule and the stabilization work done by many in the last months and
was not even raised on the steering committee (which I would consider a
requirement in such a case).
