+      <li>GCC now includes an ISO COBOL compiler, gcobol.  It has been
+        tested on x86-64 and AArch64 targets. It is not expected to work
+        on 32-bit systems. Efforts are underway to adapt it to other
machine
+        architectures that support native 128-bit computation.</li>
+      <li>gcobol passes the NIST CCVS/85 test suite (except for parts
+        that are now obsolete). It uses ISO/IEC 1989:2023 as a
+        reference specification.  Some parts of that document, notably
+        object-orientation features, are yet to be implemented. Beyond
+        ISO, gcobol recognizes some syntax common on other compilers,
+        with special attention given to IBM.
+       <p>More information about GCC COBOL can be found at
