Could this patch be applied in the 3.2 branch, too?
If it improves things there and does not cause extra work,
why not include it into the 3.2.1 release?
As i understand it, 3.2.1 is a bug fix release for 3.2 which
would have become a 3.1.2 without the API changed).
3.3 will last quite some time from now on.

Well, the web-site says "fixes for regressions only" - this is
probably a long-standing bug.   And it is not a patch I'd qualify
as "obvious" or "without risk", though I think it is fairly
clean and safe.

However, I don't know the precise policy, so feel free to propose
the patch on the gcc-patches list.
