Hello.

This fixes 2 memory leaks I noticed.

Patch can bootstrap on x86_64-linux-gnu and survives regression tests.

Ready to be installed?

OK.

Thanks,
Martin

gcc/ChangeLog:

         * opts-common.c (decode_cmdline_option): Release werror_arg.
         * opts.c (gen_producer_string): Release output of
         gen_command_line_string.

Sorry to butt in here, but since we're having a discussion on this
same subject in another review of a fix for a memory leak, I thought
I'd pipe up: I would suggest a better (more in line with C++ and more
future-proof) solution is to replace the call to xstrdup (and the need
to subsequently call free) with std::string.

         if (warning_index != OPT_SPECIAL_unknown)
         {
           const struct cl_option *warning_option

Here, changing gen_command_line_string() to return std::string instead
of a raw pointer would similarly avoid having to remember to free
the pointer (and forgetting).  The function has two other callers,
both in gcc/toplev.c, and both also leak the memory for the same
reason as here.
