4.3 target deprecation patch part 2
- From: "Joseph S. Myers" <joseph at codesourcery dot com>
- To: gcc-patches at gcc dot gnu dot org

- Subject: 4.3 target deprecation patch part 2
This patch (changing config.gcc and release notes only) adds the
remaining target deprecations proposed for 4.3. Tested for config.gcc
syntax; OK to commit?
(I only included the cris-aout deprecation as specifically suggested
by its maintainer, not any more general *-*-aout* *-*-coff*
deprecation which didn't attract much in the way of comments either
way when suggested in passing.)
