re: Fixed on the mainline.  I'm not sure we want to put this on the other
branches.

Not knowing the gcc code in question, I can't comment on how much potential
regression risk this fix will introduce.  Assuming it's safe enough to apply
without worry to other releases, I'd hope this would also be applied also to
gcc-4.2 .

The 4.2 version is what we were attempting to use when the bug was encountered,
and switching to 4.3 at this point would likely be more destabilizing than the
original bug (as well as potentially being a porting exersize as has
traditionally been the case between major compiler revisions).
