Hi Mark, Steve,
I would actually put it more strongly: in general, without good
reason to the contrary, fixinclude patches ought to go into all active
branches. A contraindication might be "days away from cutting a full
release', but otherwise these patches are generally quite safe and
make GCC more readily usable. In other words, if another 4.1.x is
possible, I'd put it there, too. :) But Mark gets to make final call
on that.
Cheers - Bruce
