Bug#93343: README.Bugs.gz is gratitiously Latin-1; should be ASCII



Package: gcc-3.0-base
Version: 1:3.0-0pre010403
Severity: wishlist

The section quoting the standard part 4.4/4 uses the soft hyphen at 
several places. Why, I don't understand; it seems like a hyphen is 
called for, not the ambigiously non-graphic soft hyphen. However,
not all character sets have a soft hyphen at <AD>, and most 
multibyte sets don't accept it as valid at all. Since it adds no
real value over just using the hyphen, it would be nice to change
all the soft hyphens to hyphens and get an ASCII document.
