Still one has to ask exactly which compilers in the gcc4 package
we should be focusing on? The gfortran compiler specifically is making
really good progress. With patches to be added today, it should pass
almost all of the NIST Fortran validation testsuite. I think we would be
far better off doing the same thing for gfortran as we do for g95.
Sampling the source code at regular intervals. Since gcc 4.1 is into
stage 3, it is probably worthwhile testing that branch for gfortran
since most of the new features and fixes go into that branch first.
Better to help provide feedback now rather than to have to wait for
the 4.1.1 release.
