Is this patch for mainline or the upcoming release branch?  Any chance
it could just be the branch, if that wasn't the idea all along?  I can
see the need for the next release to be compatible with gcc 3.0, but
I'm not sure why CVS mainline has to be, especially since CVS gcc
ought to work with the new scheme.
