I haven't touched the gcc in stable yet because I've been waiting on another important bug fix, which has been "RSN" for about 2 months: A new upstream version of g77. The one currently in stable is unacceptably buggy. In fact, there _is_ no acceptable version of g77 in existence right now. :( Unfortunately, I'm now convinced that the g77 team is waiting on the relase of gcc 2.8.0 (which has been RSN for over half a year), and the new version probably won't work with 2.7.2.1 at all. So, with no reason to wait, I'm going to go ahead and fix this bug in stable. I'll put a new version in Incoming this week...when 1.3.1 is released, it should be part of it, along with a new XFree86. > I think he should at least watch this list.

Funny, I thought I _was_ subscribed to debian-user, and the list had simply been dead for months.
