I've gone ahead and committed changes to incorporate patches for recent

gcc patch.  It is 7648 lines and the build shows several unexpected

How should we approach this?  The easy way is to not apply the new patch.
Additionally I do not know what the patch is supposed to fix.

How should we go on this?  I will hold off on -rc2 until we can reach a
consensus.

I am inclined to leave the patch out. Just in time actually, as I will run
a build overnight for -rc2, and I will see if these still appear without
the patch. I can easily run another build if the consensus it to leave it
in the book. These test results look very eerie.

I'm running a test right now without the patch to compare. Chapter 6 gcc started about 20 minutes ago.
