Hi!

Somehow managed to omit subject field in yesterday's 
announcement about upload of test version of DJGPP port of 
egcs-1.1a. Sorry for that problem (see my previous message for 
details).

Some questions we should descuss:

-  would it be usefull to modify archive gcc-e11b.zip to provide
   exceptions support for djdev201 (this is not needed for djdev202,
   and therefore is not included as I compiled it using djdev202)
   There is no need to modify other archives for that.
   If Yes than is it usefull to release it to general users of DJGPP.   
   Unless I introduced some new  problem then all that that were 
   fixed for gcc-2.8.1 is in (and also some others). Of course some
   preliminary testing is needed before deciding. I included in
   announcement a bash script that does necessary things to have
   working exceptions with djdev201 (As I said nothing is needed for
   djdev202)

-  With the aproach I used there should be no problems to switch to
   PGCC. When I build egcs-1.1 last time I didn't do ANY changes 
   to sources manually (only through script I included in source 
   archive). I don't think it will be necessary to edit anything 
   manually for PGCC (only one additional patch from egcs to 
   pgcc). Of course no one in forced to use special
   optimizations for pentium processors. I currently think it is not
   needed.
