I'd just assumed you were pointing us to the web-page about nightly
snapshots that CodeSourcery creates.  I had missed the fact that the
web-page you pointed to would actually compile the code.  I didn't
know such a great thing existed.  Nice work, CodeSourcery!

Anyway, now that you mentioned it, I've actually tried your code with
20000327's snapshot, and, surprisingly, it produces the output you
claim to be incorrect, so I'll keep the bug report in my mail folder
for later perusal, unless someone else acknowledges that it is fixed
or moves it into gnats.
