That is one approach. We should maybe periodically (say when GCC is upgraded across major revisions) build the port of the same version, and just commit built man page.[*] It will be in ancient nroff, but at least it will be current. Maybe we could even write a script to wack it more into mandoc format. I can mail you the 3.4 port manpage to play with. -- -- David (obrien@FreeBSD.org) [*] the manpage is built from texinfo sources, using perl and Pod::Man.
