For getting more people involved in fixing bugs they need those bugs in plain C code (read: a testcase) presented to them, preferrably with a (short) description what and why it is going wrong. Useful suggestions about what one could do tend to be ignored or end in endless back-and-forth mailings like this. Especially if the discussion is about such broad field as FP correctness. It may also help to have bugs collected beyond a meta-bug (such as 323 seems to be). Also GCC is not the only player involved here, but glibc is as well. Take a break and come back with results of actual work done, this impresses people a lot more than (repeated) ranting about gcc development in general. Richard.
