I nominate the following as show stoppers for 3.3. They're all silent
wrong code emission bugs, and regressions.
8634 (incorrect inlining of memcpy under -O2)
9745 (loop alias problem)
10021 (another loop alias problem, causes some of the m68k bustage)
10087 (multidimensional array problem)
10171 (the infamous 'lost loop' bug)
10185 (more loop bugs)
8866 (jumptable->jump problem)
Some of these are probably down to the same fundamental bug.
It would also be nice if 3.3 could bootstrap itself successfully on
m68k; there seem to be a number of frightening bugs preventing 3.2 from
doing so, but the m68k experts will have to look at them.
That would be more than sufficient for my tastes. :-)
