GCC 4.4.2 Release Candidate available from gcc.gnu.org

GCC 4.4.2 Release Candidate available from gcc.gnu.org

[Jakub Jelinek]

The first release candidate for GCC 4.4.2 is available from

  ftp://gcc.gnu.org/pub/gcc/snapshots/4.4.2-RC-20091008

and shortly its mirrors.  It has been generated from SVN revision 152546.

I have so far bootstrapped and tested the release candidate on
x86_64-linux and i686-linux.  Please test it and report any issues to
bugzilla.

The branch is now frozen and all checkins until after the final release
of GCC 4.4.2 require explicit RM approval.

If all goes well, I'd like to release 4.4.2 next week.

We seem to have picked up a few testsuite regressions on x86_64-apple-darwin10
between 4.4.1 and 4.4.2...

http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-testresults/2009-10/msg01382.html

FAIL: g++.dg/debug/dwarf2/pubnames-1.C scan-assembler-times .debug_pubnames 1
FAIL: g++.dg/debug/dwarf2/pubnames-1.C scan-assembler-times "main".*external name 1

FAIL: g++.dg/debug/dwarf2/typedef1.C scan-assembler-times DW_AT_name: "typedef foo<1u>::type type" 1

I believe these were fixed in gcc trunk with...

http://gcc.gnu.org/viewcvs?view=revision&revision=150375

and

http://gcc.gnu.org/viewcvs?view=revision&revision=151538

Can we get those testsuite fixes backported to gcc 4.4.2?
