The general approach is insert the ChangeLog, as text, in the body of the email message. Create a patch for the actual changes to the source code and append it in the message if it is small or attach it if it is large. > Since switching to C++ inside gcc, it isn't possible to get working gcc/g++ > binaries installed using native ld on AIX without this patch, as these need > dynamic libstdc++.a from builddir(!).

I have added your patch, but LDFLAGS only includes -static-libstdc++ -static-libgcc for stage1, when the initial GCC does not implement it. I configure with --with-boot-ldflags=-L/usr/gnu/lib so that bootstrap will find the gmp, mpfr, mpc shared libraries. Do you have those libraries built statically or shared? Thanks, David
