Andrew,

I'm certainly unsurprised that you disagree with me, since I don't think we
have ever agreed on anything in something like 5 years.  To get an idea of what
I'm talking about, scope:
   http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=27827
where I have to show the problem affects almost every x86 architecture in use
at that time until someone admits it is a problem (somewhere around comment
#25, I think). I don't believe you ever said it was a problem.

How about this bug, still unconfirmed 3 years after I posted the benchmark
showing it?  

How about this beauty:
   http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=38496

Obviously, I disagree with your summary of our interactions on the x87 gcc
arbitrary rounding bug, but at least people can scope the link to see if they
agree with your description. Unfortunately, several similar things I reported
years ago have aged out of the system.

If you could point out any report that I sent in where you agreed that it was a
bug or a problem before someone else did, maybe we can dispel my feeling that
you are someone who just routinely marks things as unimportant regardless of
the facts.

Regards,
Clint
