transactional-memory status

transactional-memory status

[Aldy Hernandez]

Dear Release Managers...

We're pretty much done with the merge blockers, and even suggestions 
that weren't blockers :).  The only outstanding patch review is a 
cleanup by Richard Henderson that is waiting for Richi's review here:

http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2011-11/msg01033.html

I am still testing some whitespace changes, but I'm fairly confident in 
my ability to hit tab and space bar.

Is there anything else you require of me?

Ideally I'd like a slush, if the merge gets approved.  I would do one 
last trunk->branch, test, apply the global diff to trunk, and ask for a 
slush while I commit.  This is, assuming the merge is authorized.  I 
could also post the last diff before the commit, if it is necessary.

What do you guys think?

I suppose we can freeze for the TM merge once we leave stage1 (thus,
in a few hours).
If you are ready by then, of course, and the tree isn't too broken.

Fine by me.  In the meantime we will stabilize things on the branch, 
merge from trunk, run tests, and have a patch ready to be applied to the 
trunk once I get the go-ahead by you.

Thank you guys for your diligent reviews.
