pull in most recent patches to gcc-2.95.3 from the netbsd-1-6

branch.  Includes fixes for sparc, alpha, and others.
Should help in keeping pkgsrc running on 1.5.* systems.
The patches which mirror those in the main netbsd source tree have
been all put into a single distribution patch file.  This makes
it much easier to maintain and easier to easily see which patches
are specific to pkgsrc.

+
+This file documents the steps taken to update this package.
+
+=)  Extract sources
+
+  make clean && make extract
+
+=)  Copy to .orig directory
+  mkdir -p /some/tmp/dir/gcc-2.95.3.orig
+  mv work/gcc-2.95.3 /some/tmp/dir/gcc-2.95.3.orig/gcc
+
+=)  Update in-tree gcc sources
+
+  cd /usr/src/gnu/dist/toolchain && cvs update
+
+=)  Copy over the new sources excluding CVS directories
+
+  mkdir /some/tmp/dir/gcc-2.95.3
+  tar --exclude CVS -cvf - gcc | ( cd /some/tmp/dir/gcc-2.95.3 ; tar -xf - )
+
+=)  Create patch file
+
+  mkdir /some/tmp/dir/foo
+  cd /some/tmp/dir/foo && diff -u2 -r -N ../gcc-2.95.3.orig/gcc ../gcc-2.95.3/gcc  > gcc-2.95.3-diff-`date '+%Y-%m-%d'`
+  gzip gcc-2.95.3-diff-`date '+%Y-%m-%d'`
+
+=) copy the patch file to your distfiles directory, and 'make makesum'.  Now proceed with
+   creating any pkgsrc specific patches for gcc, placing them in patches/ as usual.
+
+=) when its all tested and working, upload the patchfile
+   to ftp.netbsd.org:/pub/NetBSD/packages/distfiles/LOCAL_PORTS/
+
+Hopefully this procedure will make maintaining this package a little easier.
