[Again] 3.1-branch build problem

[Loren James Rittle]

If developers want to take AJ's attitude (and I'm *completely* happy
with it since it makes our lives much easier), THEN WE ABSOLUTELY MUST
APPLY THIS PATCH, OR A REASONABLE ALTERNATE, BEFORE THE 3.1 RELEASE:

http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2002-04/msg00102.html

It is NOT fair to tell users in our documentation that something works
but then yell at them when they try it and it is broken.

OTOH, here is the patch for the exact report from Christian:

http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2002-04/msg00101.html

Neither has been approved for mainline or 3.1 branch.

Regards,
Loren
