We would like to see this patch, or something similar applied. Currently, we subset the GCC source distribution to include only C, C++, and UPC when we build the GUPC (GNU UPC) source code distributions. For some test systems where we port GUPC, the available disk space is restricted, and the additional 600MB or so of space required for the additional languages and test suites might exceed the available quota. If I recall correctly, there was some discussion on this list, or perhaps gcc-patches, as to whether a decision should be made regarding the ability to subset the GCC source tree. If sub-setting is not prohibited, and there are no plans to upgrade/rewrite gengtype and its infrastructure, then something like this patch seems necessary. thanks, - Gary
