I feel that there are two many changes in this branch to permit its
being merged back into GCC 3.3.1. The dot-releases are supposed to
contain fixes for critical defects only. We have occasionally allowed
new architectures to be merged in on release branches, but only when
they were completely separate and therefore could not impact existing
code.
