I'm back for stage 1! The same patch from https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2018-02/msg01549.html rebases cleanly and I didn't change anything but the date on the log entry since what I posted there. The fresh rebase is on the roland/pr77609 git branch for your convenience.
It has no check-gcc failures on x86_64-linux-gnu. OK to commit to trunk now? When will be the right time to raise the question of backporting it, perhaps shortly after the 8 release? Thanks, Roland
