| <p>This section describes known problems that affect users of GCC. Most |
| of these are not GCC bugs per se—if they were, we would fix them. |
| But the result for a user may be like the result of a bug. |
| </p> |
| <p>Some of these problems are due to bugs in other software, some are |
| missing features that are too much work to add, and some are places |
| where people’s opinions differ as to what is best. |
