Your humble opinion is wrong. egcs always had an open ear to linus (and
still has). it has nothing to do with ego on the side of egcs. the problem
is that linus (having a very limited knowledge of compilers) thinks he
knows how egcs has to work.

If you'd follow linux-kernel you'd knew that he pissed off quite many of
his co-workers as well.
