Well, sounds great, but unfortunately, it doesn't work completely; I'm
getting unresolved symbols from libstdc++.so (vtables for __case_table
or so - sorry, removed the logfile  too early) on i586-linux-gnulibc1.
Without your patch to toplev.c everything is ok. Looks like we have to
look further :-(
