This manual documents how to use the GNU compilers,
as well as their features and incompatibilities, and how to report
bugs. It corresponds to the compilers
(crosstool-NG linaro-1.13.1-4.8-2013.11 - Linaro GCC 2013.10)
version 4.8.3.
The internals of the GNU compilers, including how to port them to new
targets and some information about how to write front ends for new
languages, are documented in a separate manual. See <a href="../gccint/index.html#Top">Introduction</a>.
