No. I mean the book whose title I mentioned in my first reply to your 
original query: "Using and Porting GNU CC" by Richard M. Stallman (the 
2.8.1 edition is on-line at <http://www.delorie.com/gnu/docs/gcc/>). It is 
meant as a comprehensive reference to GCC internals, though obviously one 
that falls out of date as soon as it goes into publication. The paper form 
of the version 2.8 edition is 545 pages long.

No doubt a 3.x version would be bigger, if there was a direct counterpart, 
but I don't see any indication there is. (For one thing, it was a pricey 
book: list $50 US). The current equivalent appears to be available here: 
<http://www.gnu.org/software/gcc/onlinedocs/>.

You assume this is a bug.

If you haven't asked, how do you know you won't get a useful answer?

There's nothing more I can tell you.
