Hi. I'm not going to question

...that last part?
If you mean asynchronous exceptions then perhaps in theory,
except there's no need to (and no state to) "unwind" to
in-between cc0 setter and user. But I guess that goes for
"MODE_CC" targets too; exception information isn't that precise.

(Not applied yet? Before the gcc-10 branch? Can you please
consider dropping cris* from that part when rebasing it, as per
contents on master and my pledge to merge axis/cris-decc0?)

Beware, the two last hunks shouldn't be applied, else the patch
will actually make m68k-*-uclinuxoldabi* andvax-*-vms* available
(by --enable-obsolete).
That part would go in when actually removing the targets.
I may have lost track of the conversation that followed; maybe
the patch was itself obsoleted.
brgds, H-P
