That. Is. Cool. :-)

Thank you! 


Should we document this somewhere?  (Our web pages do not appear to
contain "gcc.gnu.org/r", so probably not.)


On a related note, contribute.html has a link to 
https://gcc.gnu.org/viewcvs/gcc/trunk/contrib/check_GNU_style.sh?view=markup
and gcc-4.8/changes.html has a linkto
https://gcc.gnu.org/viewcvs/trunk/libgfortran/libgfortran.h?content-type=text%2Fplain&view=co
which are broken now.  

Do you have an idea how to go about those?  (Happy to make those changes
then.)

Thanks,
Gerald
