Re: Different language frontends and fancy_abort()


    Surely when the Pascal front end is part of GCC, bug reports for it should
    go to the GCC GNATS database as with the rest of GCC (and GNATS can then
    send them - identified with category "pascal" - on to a separate
    pascal-bugs@gcc.gnu.org or similar list, if desired)?

That's a very different issue.  Even if the bugs go to the same place,
the information that a front can produce in explaining the location of the
bug can vary greatly.   The Ada front end takes advantage of this to list
the files that need to be included to reproduce the bug, for example.
