I sent a revised patch a few months ago: http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2013-02/msg00260.html But got no response at all. I had intended to ping it after Stage 1 reopened, but I didn't get around to it (it's been a low priority). I'll ping it to get approval for the parts that are outside dwarf2out proper, and try to get it committed soon. Sorry for the delay. -cary
