3.0, 3.0.1 and 3.0.2 definitely do not support at least
NetBSD/i386 ELF platform. Dunno about later revisions because
I am not interested in 3.0 branch anymore. gcc-current works just
fine for me.
i submitted my changes shortly after 3.0 was released, and either
included a second patch relevant for the 3.0 branch, or a message
asking that the same patch be applied to the 3.0 branch. this
change appeared in GCC 3.0.4. it should work but i haven't tested
it myself.
