--- Comment #17 from Daniel Berlin <dberlin at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
Not sure how i ended up on the CC list for this one, but i actually
would disagree it would be better than nothing.
Features that can only be made to work a small amount and are
incapable of being improved tend to be the ones users complain about
the most.
In cases where you can't even get to 30% or 40%, let alone 80%, it's
often better to do nothing.
