>Description:

The following references to EGCS remain in comments in GCC (after
<URL: http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2000-12/msg01092.html >) which
it would be desirable to update to describe current GCC instead of
obsolete EGCS.

gcc/config/alpha/openbsd.h:   dwarf unwind information. egcs doesn't try too hard to check internal
gcc/config/alpha/openbsd.h:   Check alpha/alpha.h, alpha/osf.h for it when egcs is upgraded.  */
gcc/config/i370/i370.md:;; Basically, using clobber in egcs-1.1.1 will ruin ability to optimize around
gcc/config/i386/openbsd.h:   dwarf unwind information. egcs doesn't try too hard to check internal
gcc/config/m68k/openbsd.h:   dwarf unwind information. egcs doesn't try too hard to check internal
gcc/config/m68k/x-mot3300:# With egcs-1.1.2, this also happens for f/expr.o and f/stb.o
gcc/config/ns32k/ns32k.h:   2.8 but was not picked up by egcs (at least egcs 1.0). Having all
gcc/config/sparc/openbsd.h:   dwarf unwind information. egcs doesn't try too hard to check internal

>How-To-Repeat:

Find references to EGCS in comments, which aren't helpful in telling
you what current GCC might do and may potentially confuse about the
currency of EGCS.

>Fix:

Change the comments listed above to describe current GCC.
