== GCC ==

 * Merged Ira's remaining vectorizer patches into Linaro GCC 4.7.

 * Merged Richard's sched-pressure patch (enabled by default
   on ARM) into Linaro GCC 4.7.  Asked IBM colleagues for
   benchmark results on s390 and rs6000 as well.

 * Committed patch to enable vect_condition tests in FSF mainline,
   FSF 4.6, and Linaro GCC 4.7.

 * Verified that Linaro GCC 4.7 now contains every feature that
   was present in Linaro GCC 4.6.

 * Rebased and re-benchmarked fwprop-subreg patch.

 * Ongoing work on a patch to generate usat/ssat instructions
   where appropriate.

 * Worked on improving end-of-loop value computation.

 * Fixed mainline .init_array/.fini_array regression on certain
   newlib targets.

 * Reviewed several merge requests.



Mit freundlichen Gruessen / Best Regards
