I preemptively ran over section 5, and I have attached a patch if you
are interested.

Some things I couldn't figure out on my own:

Page 72: "Note that many of the preprocessor's warnings are on by
default and have no options to control them."

Page 73: "Suppress all warnings, including those which GNU CPP issues
by default."

(that's a contradiction, I believe)

I made an assumption about the behavior of -I on standard system
include directories when -nostdinc is passed.  Is this correct?

Page 79: Doesn't -l search for a shared library to which to link in
preference to a static library?

Here is my ChangeLog entry.  Not sure how much detail was appropriate.

2003-04-17  Stephen Compall  <address@hidden>

        * cppopts.texi: Specified behavior of -I with system headers when
        -nostdinc is passed.

        Changed @strong{Note:} to @strong{Please note:} to fix potential
        Info parsing problem.

        Various small grammar fixes.

        * invoke.texi: Added code tags around C constants and functions,
        as well as samp and option tags in appropriate places.

        Clarified units of `ggc-min-heapsize'.

        Fixed quote marks around "RAM".

        Various small grammar fixes.

Taking advice on what the GPL means from Microsoft is like taking
Stalin's word on the meaning of the US Constitution. They don't
understand and they're not trying to understand: they're simply trying
to scare people out of dealing with a competitor they can't buy, can't
intimidate, and can't stop.
