Brian,

Thanks for taking the time to explain the situation to me.

I'm not sure what I'll do at this point.

I think this is a worthwhile patch in general. The precompiled
header processing in gcc is a valuable feature to be able to use.

I can understand the reasons to avoid cygwin local patches.

Unfortunately some of the host-*.c details changed between 3.4.1
and 3.4.2, and right now I'm using 3.4.1. I suspect submitting the
3.4.1 based patches to the gcc mainainers won't cut it because
they're past that point.

I suppose this will have to wait until I can find the opportunity
to move to 3.4.2 --- or later.

Earl
