FWIW, I've now uploaded those other changes to the branch. The commit messages use: [Branch only patch -- not intended for trunk in its current state] to mark the patches that we know need tidying up a bit for trunk. I didn't send them to gcc-patches@ because I thought they would be noise. The new patches span the range r243045:r243080 inclusive. Thanks, Richard
