Yeah, It's been like that for months in a row.  I'm sorry that
this happens.  I did see your posts at gcc@ and gcc-patches@ (I don't
read gcc-help, though), and I can feel your pain...  Believe me, 
I do want to get our gcc stuff upstream.

As I said before, I was waiting for gcc 4.5 to branch.  It took
a long while due to licensing issues, as you probably know.  Now that gcc
4.5 has *finally* branched, I'm cleaning up my patches to start
pushing them.

I'm sorry Vincent.  That makes no sense.  gcc != mingw-wce.  The runtime
changes you're talking about are minimal.  Unless mingw-w64 is turning
out to overcome upstream mingw, I would much rather push our changes
to the official mingw tree.  I've seen the mingw-w64 changes, and to
be honest, I didn't like much what they've done in terms of organization.
