I posted it for review.  I received some comments that I incorporated
(these are in bison) and resubmitted the patch.  Zack Weinberg said
that he would review it and that's the last I've heard back.  I guess
it slipped off his radar.  In the interim I've been waylaid by the
start of my teaching year so I haven't chased him up.  I'll do so now.

The "ansification" is going to be a sticking point.  There is a
growing consenus that GCC should be ansified but the green light has
yet to be given.
