	The GCC Maintainers, Release Manager, and Steering Committee
require all available instruments with which to manage the development of
GCC.  If Dale asks for J"orn's patch to be reverted, his request will be
considered, along with other options to address this bug.  All opinions
and comments, including yours, will be considered, but you should not
preempt Dale's right to make a request nor appear to limit the flexibility
of GCC's leaders to act.

	Reverting patches is a big hammer and should be used sparingly,
however that and the threat of reverting patches are important, necessary
tools accompanying the responsibility of maintaining GCC.  I don't like
seeing those few powers chipped away; managing the development of GCC is
hard enough already.
