You missed the message to gcc-patches, entitled "PATCH to get_alias_set".
Unfortunately, the regression tester showed 19 new failures in the g77
testsuite with the patch, so I reverted it until I could determine what the
problem was.  I didn't think to XFAIL the new test in the meantime, sorry.

I never add entries to the testsuite ChangeLog for new tests; it seems
pointless.  I asked Mark for his thoughts on the subject, and he concurs.

The 1.1 entry indicates the patch which fixes the testcase.  The 1.2 entry
is me fixing a syntax error in the dg-options line.

Until the patch is applied again, yes.
