1. Bugs in gnu software (other than gnuemacs, which is in our release)
should go to gnu@athena, not bugs@athena.
2. The gnu file system exists in AFS as /afs/athena/project/gnu; the
gccdev file system should not be used, except for the experimental
RT compiler, and that only for now. (There is also a copy in the
gnu file system, so you should use the "gnu" version for both.)
The vax directory there probably contains a compiler that does not
work. The "gccdev" volume is for development versions only, which
are not guaranteed to work at all.
3. GCC looks for the programs it runs (and gnulib) by absolute
pathname; thus, you will need a link /mit/gnu pointing to the root
of the gnu AFS volume.
