I agree. I was very impressed to see the amount of work Randolph & Grant
had done when I got back. While I'm not particularly familiar with GCC
development, I understand the pain of trying to separate out relevant
patches from a few months of development work and backporting them.
Well done to all involved, particularly given the 2 days they had to
accomplish this feat.
