	We already have a new mechanism for development that includes
doing major development on a branch.  Why not consider GCC for Red Hat
Linux 8 a similar situation.  Branches in the GCC CVS repository are more
than just release branches.

	Even if you do not try to find a way to use the FSF GCC sources as
your base, I hope that you will consider the request from numerous corners
that the version of GCC included in Red Hat Linux 8 be compatible with FSF
GCC releases.

Regards, David
