 This is a bad idea since any changes we make to the gcc docs
probably should be pushed upstream, thus they need to apply
to both the 3.3 branch and mainline.  So far everything I have
done has applied to both branches, so hopefully there is less
work for next time the manuals will be published, probably 200[56]
or so for gcc 3.[56].


 Thinking of the 3.3. branch, can anyone still do make dvi with
updated sources?

p.s. I figured this should go to the list.
