Sorry - my comment wasn't clear. I totally agree that we should go
into the branch of gcc NOW and the stuff at savannah should be dropped
ASAP. However, I am not convinced that my playing (the content of the
tarball that is on your webpage) is a good start off point. That is, maybe
we should make the initial commit at bit more vanilla that it appears to 
be now. One possible attempt of such a vanilla commit would be to take the 
content of the savannah CVS and commit it instead. Just a suggestion. Maybe 
it does not matter that much - it will hopefully be severly modified within
a short time.

Cheers, Jacob
