Yes it's used right now in gcc 2.96 so it will be used in the next version.

I'm guessing binutils 2.10.1 will released long before gcc 3.0, but then 
again I could be wrong. People who use gcc releases won't run into this bug, 
but then there are people like you testing gcc who need the fix. I could re-
release 2.10 and say that most folks need not bother downloading it 
again unless you experiment with gcc prereleases.
