I'd also like to backport this one:
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2020-03/msg00360.html

It only affects the testsuite (and only for *-*-mingw* targets), but
ensures we don't get FAILs caused by the tests hitting a different
bug.

Fixing that other bug will happen for 9.4, but we can avoid the
failures with a small tweak to the tests, so they still verify what
was intended. On the other hand, some failing tests won't actually
hurt the quality of the 9.3 release, so it's not important.
