Status
======
The GCC 4.3 branch is open for commits under normal release branch
rules.
GCC 4.3.1 is still not ready for release as the x86 direction flag
issue (36079) needs to be resolved. We have reached consensus to
add a new flag -mcld to allow to work around the kernel bug and to
add a configure option to enable/disable this by default.
The patch from Uros is implementing the -mcld parts but lacks the
configure option part for which no patch exists yet.

The plan is to create a release candidate for 4.3.1 once the direction
flag issue is resolved and 4.2.4 was released. I will announce a
freeze of the 4.3 branch once the release process starts.
