[gnu.org #225214] apparent mistake in html attribute

[John Sullivan via RT]

Hello GCC Team,

I'm doing some housecleaning, and thought I should pass on this rather
old message to you that we received in the GNU Webmasters queue about
the sidebar on your web pages.

Can someone acknowledge this? Thanks!
