gcc-2.95.3 is released.

We may be thinking of different things.  If Chris Faylor finds that the
standard gcc-2.95.2-gcc-2.95.3.diff works with the cygwin source, that
would be the way to go for anyone who wants the 2.95.3 changes on
cygwin.  I hope I never made any remarks with respect to inclusion of
any changes in cygwin-gcc, other than those about testing 64-bit
alignment.  I did make remarks about the standard gcc-2.95.3 not being
willing to advance beyond cygwin-B20.

Fortunately, the mainline gcc-3.0 snapshots seem much more in favor of
cygwin, but I see that none of the last 3 of David Billingsworth's
patches to make the testsuite go on cygwin have been included in the
distribution as of today.  Maybe tonight at last I'll get all the way
through the g++ suite to see whether 64-bit alignment is breaking
anything there.  It does appear to break a third of the objc tests, but
presents no problem in gcc or g77.
