>Environment:
lynx-ssl 2.8.3.1, netscape 4.77, konqueror 2.2a1
Debian unstable/sid
>Description:
I set cookies to accept all under all 3 browsers, then try
to follow link to GNATS from gcc.gnu.org. With netscape and
konqueror both lead to endless loops of redirect/login. I am
never able to get to view/create/etc..

I did manage to finally get here, with lynx 2.8.3.1. I have
nothing against lynx, however as gcc is part of open source
other 'popular' open source browsers should work as well.
>How-To-Repeat:
Use netscape/konqueror, go to http://gcc.gnu.org , follow
link to GNATS.
>Fix:
Use lynx (fix webpage?)
