Re: [wwwdocs] gcc-8/porting_to.html
Hi JonY,
Sorry for the delay. Please find updated patch as per Gerald and you suggestion.
Is this ok for wwwdocs once [1] is committed in GCC 8 cycle?
[1] https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2017-02/msg01153.html
Best regards,
Thomas

Is this really going to be a question for the Porting Guide, or more
something you'd put into the release notes (aka changes.html)? I am
thinking more the latter.
This patch is approved for gcc-8/changes.html once GCC 7 has branched
and gcc-8/changes.html be put in place (though I may be doing that pro-
actively later today ;-).

It should be part of the release notes since it only affects GCC itself,
not the actual generated output.
