My fear is that the 3.0 branch will become like the 2.95 branch that
lives for years as the "latest" compiler -- which was basically a dead
branch once 2.95 was out the door.  IMHO the FSF/GCC really needs to
follow a more liberal merge from trunk policy to keep the trunk and
branch closer to gether to make it easier to do diffs and bring down [low
risk] bug fixes.  Binutils has a looser merge from trunk policy than GCC
and it works well IMHO.  As does FreeBSD.

``cvs -q diff -u0 -rgcc-3_0-branch -r1'' already produces a 17 meg diff
of 522,907 lines, and this is even before 3.0 is released.
