What do you think about possibly-disruptive testsuite patches?
In particular, the patch in
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2009-01/msg01496.html
fixes an actual bug on Darwin (testsuite/38562) and cleans up
earlier fixes for testsuite/36443. I didn't want to add it to
trunk if the branch was imminent, but otherwise would it be OK,
since not much is happening in stage 4 and there will apparently
be plenty of time to revert it if there are problems?
