Quite a number of these are usability nits: error messages that are not ideal, misbehavior in the driver, etc. Most of these have work-arounds, but it would be nice if we could get some polish work done on these issues. Most apply to 4.0 as well. Examples include PR17537, 17393, 17361, 13993, 15369. However, I still see nothing standing in the way of a November 1 release of GCC 3.4.3. GCC 4.0 ======= There are 184 PRs targeted at 4.0, including those targeted at 3.4.3, of which 32 are wrong-code bugs. I'm concerned about PR15014 (which involves label differences), PR 15486 (-fdata-sections vs. common), and PR 16721 (reads of volatile variables disappearing). I'm glad to see Dan Berlin et. al. maintaining the Wiki page about things in GCC 3.5. I'm also glad to report that it looks like all of the major 4.0 projects have now been submitted, as desired. That's great. As of now, if it hasn't been submitted already, we're waiting for 4.1. Exactly when we'll create a release branch will depend on getting these projects merged in, the Objective-C++ changes finished, and getting some of the more important defects fixed. I'd hope for some time in October. We do have some patches outstanding for review, and I hope that the appropriate people will review some of those soon. In the meantime, let's keep fixing those PRs! --------------090404070704020805060804--
