Heh, sorry, my recollection of this after 19 years is totally blank.
Interestingly, PR14571 must refer to the pre-bugzilla bug tracker
system. There was one on sourceware.org, but its web interface is no
longer operating, and scraps of the database files that are still
archived seem not to go up to 14571. Likewise, no google hits.
So I'm at a loss, can't find orginal supporting data either, and
that's a bummer.
