good you thought of that, thank you!

I believe that would be "run-time library"?

Red Hat. It's Red Hat. Two words. Why does "everybody" get

How about if you contract this to "Thomas Schwinge and Bernd
Schmidt (CodeSourcery)" and similarly for you guys from Intel?
Incidently the alphabetical ordering nicely supports this here.
Note: Schwinge > Schmidt, so I think you'll want to switch those two.
That said, overall this is a bit too long for an entry on the home
page. Can you put all those details in the gcc-5/changes.html page
(this is good material) and link to it from a shortened entry for
the home page?

"supported by the C, C++ and Fortran compilers" (plural)
(This adds "the", but also splits C and C++ which really are to
different compilers in many ways. No need to be shy. ;-)
Given the number of suggestions, in this case I'd prefer to have
another look at an updated version. Now that I am back online, I
should be able to turn this quickly.
