Oops, wrong subject. It should be "Re: toolchain/52427"
(colon was missing...).

Hi Kalvis,

thank you again for great analysis! Some random comments:

(1) Discussion should be recorded to GNATS, our bug tracking system.
Please (a) mention PR number in subject, with (b) cc to gnats-bugs@.
I have forwarded your messages to gnats-bugs@.

(2) binutils is a 3rd party software for us. Can you please report
this to upstream?

https://sourceware.org/binutils/docs/binutils/Bug-Reporting.html

(3) Now, we are preparing to migrate to GCC 12.3.0. Hopefully,
vax will switch to 12.3.0 soon. IMO, your patch should be applied
after the switch. It brings about behavior change for the critical
toolchain component. I'd like to evaluate its results, separated
from those by GCC bump.

Let me thank you again for your work!!
