Bugzilla and gcc-bugs@gcc.gnu.org

I'd like to suggest that gcc-bugs be used only for NEW reports being 
entered into bugzilla, and that some other list (maybe the currently 
defunct gcc-prs) be used for all audit-trail mailings and follow-ups.

The problem we had in the past was that gcc-bugs and gcc-prs overlapped by 
about 95%, which meant that both lists were practically useless.  Keeping 
gcc-bugs as a repository for new reports only would enable developers to 
easily spot new bug reports coming in without having to wade through piles 
of junk.
