--- Comment #13 from Дилян Палаузов <dilyan.palauzov at aegee dot org> ---
At https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=70345#c4 is written that “Right
now the plugin from any gcc can be used with any gcc.”  This is not the same as
the last comment.  Please clarify again, if any gcc plugin can be used with any
gcc.

If several plugins can be installed simultaneously and the first one that
claims the .o file wins, why aren’t plugins for both GCC7 and GCC8 installed at
the same time?  Just for gcc8 files, the gcc7 plugin will not claim the
responsibility.
