And interestingly it still does when I download the page and view it locally (Firefox 43 or Google Chrome). Instead of hardcoding <b style='color:red'>text</b> it makes sense to use <span class="boldred">text</span> which is easier (and easier to tweak, and I just applied the patch below. Interestingly enough, same result: Looks just fine when viewed locally; https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-6/changes.html in the browser does not show the color, though it validates. :-( Hmm.
