Geez, 'delta' from http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~dsw
really does seem to make it easy to track down
near-minimal testcases for ICEs.

It's tempting to continually beat the crap out of gcc-4.1 snapshots by
compiling all the sources I can find,
then for each ICE that occurs,
using delta to find a minimal testcase, and
reporting it to bugzilla if it's not already there.

Would that be useful, or is it overkill?

Very useful. Though if you can occasionally go back through them to  
verify they're still bugs it'd be appreciated.

Just remember to use topformflat and -Wfatal-errors to make it faster
(it's particularly helpful for C++ :P)
