Hi John,

sorry for the delay in replying - I've been away from the Internet for
the last 4 days.  You're right it needs to be altered - I'll look into
this today/tomorrow.  It would also be good to improve the harness so
that a stable 3.3.6 cvs branch could be built or optionally the
unstable cvs head ready to be grafted onto gcc-4.1.0.

I'm currently knee deep in gm2 and gcc-4.1.0 which is failing on
nested procedures :-) and I really must cvs check in the changes
asap..

regards,
Gaius
