Not very useful to tell people about the first major compiler change
in years?  It may not break "make world", but it certainly breaks
things like C++ library compatability and a large part of the ports

Suprises should be documented.  -current users should be reading -current,
but that doesn't mean someone might not join after the egcs discussion.
