>Description:
Quoting from http://gcc.gnu.org/bugs.html

> Please submit your bug report directly to the GCC
> GNATS bug database. Only if this is not possible,
> mail all information to bug-gcc@gnu.org or
> gcc-bugs@gcc.gnu.org.

Quoting from http://gcc.gnu.org/gnats.html (linked to "GCC GNATS bug database in above page)

> The preferred way of submitting a bug report is by
> means of the gccbug program that is automatically
> installed with current versions of GCC and submits
> the bug report by e-mail.
> 
> If this is not possible, please use the gnatsweb
> interface. Make sure you include an e-mail address,
> so we can inform you when the status of your report
> changes.

So, the bugs page asks that the web interface be used in preference to the email interface while the web interface entry page asks that email be used.
