This is ok if nobody has serious objections and at the same time
is willing to either fix these options for 4.5 or at least show
that they do work when special care is taken at configure and
install time and is willing to document those restrictions.

Please wait 48h to give people a chance and wait until an
eventual discussion dies down.

I just want to note that we as a GCC distributor use --program-suffix
to get different GCC versions to install in parallel but have
local patches to suffix manual and info pages and to have a versioned
textdomain namespace for localiztion (like Debian does, most patches
shamelessly copied from them).  We also install cross-compiler
drivers with transformed program names.

Thanks,
Richard.
