The code would still exist, just not shipped in every GCC release (it changes
on a very different timescale, approximately one patch per year, but adds a lot
of headers and running the tests takes a long time).

I would probably create a new project on sourceware.org with a git repo to host
it (and it could be mirrored elsewhere).

To be honest, that's not a use case I'm very concerned about.

Thank you both for your replies.
