There are parts of some lists' archives in the ftp archives that aren't in
the qmail archives - in particular gcc messages 1-24899, gcc-help 1-4299,
gcc-patches 1-25999 appear to have been removed from the qmail archives at
some point. If someone kept a tarball when removing them I don't know
where it is; not in the qmail archive area, unlike the tarballs for
gcc-prs and gcc-testresults.
