Cool.  Can someone remind me where to find this version?  It's not on
tsx-11, so I'm assuming that it is new.

Also, is the new "as" sufficient to fix the problem?  I'm thinking of folks
who would just want egcs in /usr/local/egcs or something for a while --
they could drop the new as into the "passes directory" along with cc1plus
if they like.
