Bug#148651: gcc 3.1-2 patch breaks binutils builds

[Jack Howarth <howarth@bromo.msbb.uc.edu>]

   Hello. Will you guys actually try building a gcc 3.1 without
the patch and testing a test case before you close this bug
again. Please reference the slew of quoted messages in the
debian-gcc mailing list from HJ Lu and Jakub Jelinek. The current
glibc (>= 2.2) provides __cxa_atexit and Linux and any other os
using a libc which provides __cxa_atexit does NOT need to utilize
gcc to provide the same thing. HJ Lu is very clear in that he
will not debug this issue with binutils because our usage of the
__cxa_atexit from gcc instead of the copy provided by glibc via
atexit is completely unneccessary. Gee, this is like beating my
head against the wall here.
                         Jack
ps Just try rebuilding gcc 3.1.1 WITHOUT the patch and try the
test case before you close this bug again...please.
