Hi! This is the ezmlm program. I'm managing the
gcc-announce@gcc.gnu.org mailing list.
I'm sorry, your message (enclosed) was not accepted by the moderator.
If the moderator has made any comments, they are shown below.

Subject: #import, #pragma once to be removed in 3.4
Date: Thu, 06 Feb 2003 12:49:19 -0800
Message-ID: <87lm0tjfsg.fsf@egil.codesourcery.com>
So we had a discussion of the problems that PCH poses for #import,
which expanded to a discussion of the problems of #import and
#pragma once generally, which then pretty much wound down without any
middle ground being found between 'there must be some way to fix it'
and 'no, sorry, there isn't'. I think that an executive decision is
required at this point, which falls to me as cpplib maintainer.
Accordingly: #import and #pragma once will be removed from FSF GCC in
3.4. I will shortly send a patch to gcc-patches to implement that.
I have heard the concerns of the people who have problems with the
remaining mechanism for idempotent #include, i.e. wrapper #ifndefs.
I have a solution in mind, but I would first like to determine how
widespread these problems are. Please reply to this message
(do NOT cc: gcc-announce) if you have experienced problems with
collisions between macro names used in wrapper #ifndefs, or any other
technical problem with this mechanism. Please also advise if you
could not work around the problem by editing the offending headers.

The moderators are law@redhat.com and mark@codesourcery.com--one
of them apparently rejected the post (or made a mistake while
trying to approve it).

How did you find this out? (Just curious, because I tried to do the
same, and it also found cgf, but probably looking in the qmail configs
using cat/vi was not the right way.)
BTW, I noticed a lot of cygnus.com addresses, especially law@cygnus.com
;-), in various config files; just as somebody once mentioned that
cygnus.com might stop working at some point...

ezmlm-list /qmail/lists-gcc/gcc-announce/mod
cgf was in there, but I knew there was zero chance that cgf would reject
a post to that list so I just skipped his name to simplify matters. :-)

Yeh, there's additive, it's not a big deal. I suppose some really
motivated EvilDoer(c) could buy the cygnus.com domain and start
sending announcemenets to the announce lists as cgf@cygnus.com et
al, but that seems unlikely.

Actually, I did reject it. Doh. There were a number of replies to the
3.2.1 announcement and I have been rejecting them rather than let them
sit around in the queue and suffer a rejection in a week or two.
Sorry, Zack. If you resubmit the announcement, I will ignore it as usual
and let someone else approve it.
Apologies for the confusion.

Geoff has asked me to hold off pending a revision of the #include
mechanism that he is working on. I will resubmit the announcement if
and when it becomes a sure thing.

Please don't - I object to this change.
