In fact, it's in the trunk of the repository, applied as of revisions 651 and
652, dated 20080518.

I'm trying to have a maintenance branch for crosstool-NG, but only apply
*ct-ng* bug fixes to this branch, and no patch to the components (unless
it's needed to fix a bug in ct-ng, such as the MPFR thread patch).

"trunk" is the main development branch, and sees updates to both crosstool-NG
scripts and to the patches.

I might sound inconvenient, but I'm just trying to have a maintenance branch
separated from the development branch. Prior to this separation, maintenance
was done in trunk, and thus fixes would have had to wait for the next release
before they were available. Now, I can cut a maintenance release without
impacting the work in trunk, but it's quite some work on my side...

If it proves to be too much work, I'll revert to not separate maintenance from
development, but at the price of a slightly longer delay between a bug is
reported, and its fix being released.

Once again, the maintenace branch is to fix *crosstool-NG* bugs, not the
components' bugs.

Yann E. MORIN.
