Are we close to a resolution of the problems with default manifests?  It
looks to me like all the pieces are in place, but maybe I've missed
something:

   https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16790#c9
   https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16807#c8

I'm not trying to rush any maintainers, but I'm asking because I
currently have to use a self-built version of binutils, which doesn't
provide a default manifest, because of the problem I reported here:

   http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2014-04/msg00199.html

I'll update binutils ASAP.

For the default manifest to get going we also need the patcha new GCC
with Nick's patch from

   https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2014-04/msg01378.html

Is that easily backportable to GCC 4.8, or does 4.8 not support the
%if-exists functionality?

JonY, any chance we could get a release of GCC that includes this patch?
