(Complete lack of access to the FSF's machines since Thursday noon or so has pushed the 0.5.21 release off to September 8, or later; I had counted on being able to alpha-test the final version during the last several days!) So, g77-0.5.21 should incorporate the GNAT patch set as of whatever GNAT version, the one for which you sent me recent patches. ;-) (Of course, GNAT users will have to know to *not* apply the patch set from GNAT to combine it with g77; and g77 makes other patches that might destabilize GNAT. In the future, this problem should go away, but probably not for 0.5.21.) -- "Practice random senselessness and act kind of beautiful." James Craig Burley, Software Craftsperson burley@gnu.ai.mit.edu
