ping [PATCH] PR debug/5271


Here is another week-old patch, that I'd like to have reviewed:

http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2003-10/msg00968.html


There are two related issues that would like to bring under
your attention:

1) My legal papers are still not finished; rest assured
   that I will not commit the patch until the assignment
   papers are finished and just review the patch as if
   that problem has been taken care of. (I expect this to
   be finished within two weeks now).

2) This patch is quite 'big' due to the replacement of
   build(CALL_EXPR,...) with build_call_expr(...) at
   a lot of places.  If that gives issues with a merge
   with tree-ssa then I propose to not apply this
   patch till after the creation of the 3.4 branch;
   this patch is namely only needed for 3.4 and not
   for 3.5, as is explained in the url above.

   Thus:

     current mainline
            |
            |
  tree-ssa  |
      |	    |
      |     |-----.
      |	    |     |
      \    /	 Apply patch
       \  /	  |
       merge	  V
	 |     3.4 branch
	 |
	 V
     new mainline

   because it seems to make no sense to first apply
   this to mainline, create the 3.4 branch, do
   the merge with tree-ssa and then remove the
   patch again from the new mainline.
   Just a proposal ofcourse :), please let me know
   what is the prefered procedure.
