Bug 13361, <http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=13361>, has 
been blocked for six months by a problem that appears while 
bootstrapping GCC on tru64-alpha.  It appears to be a bug in either the 
Alpha backend or the tru64 system libraries.  No-one who has both 
access to tru64 and the ability to debug the problem appears willing to 
help.

My proposal is to disable Ada in the toplevel configure for 
tru64-alpha, and fix the bug.  I would do this in mainline; Mark may 
choose to do this in 3.4 as well, since the bug is targeted at 3.4.3.

Any objections?  If you do have objections, are you willing and able to 
debug the problem?  If so, when would you expect to be able to do it?
