There is a real issue which should be dealed with before release: "gcc -M -MF" doesn't aware of new make behaviour (second expansion) and sometimes (e.g. for libjava files which contain $ symbols) produces inappropriate dependencies. The problem is that gcc should support make without second expansion. See also https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=12260 -- ldv
