Me, too. :-)  Consider it approved, modulo the remarks below.

Please also add a link at the end of the "How to report bugs" FAQ Entry.
Perhaps we might want to rename that to "How to report bugs / Frequently
reported bugs".


> <title>EGCS g++ Frequently Detected Bugs</title>

I suggest to use "C++" or "C++ frontend" instead of "g++" to avoid
confusion. AFAIS, g++ is not that well-known a ``concept'' and many
users are actually invoking it as `gcc` or `c++`.

Please refrain from introducing additional three-letter words. ;-)

Finally, I recommend to always add _explicit_ notes about the latest
release and its behavior. How about replacing "egcs-2.92.15" by "egcs 1.1
and egcs-2.92..." in various places?

Thanks for that effort!
