Done thusly.  Committed to mainline after testing snapshots off mainline
and the gcc-3.3 branch; also the gccadmin account on gcc.gnu.org now has
this change.

(This patch is not suitable for the gcc-3.3 branch; it uses infrastructure
which is not present there and probably is too risky to backport.)
