    The GCC developers are proud to announce a new major GCC release, 13.1.

    This release integrates a frontend for the Modula-2 language which
    was previously available separately and lays foundation for a
    frontend for the Rust language which will be available in a future
    release.

    Support for emitting the STABS debugging format was removed. GCC
    supports DWARF in almost all configurations.

    The C frontend got support for several C23 features, the C++ frontend
    for C++23 features. The C++ standard library experimental support for
    C++20 and C++23 was enhanced. For the C family of languages you can now
    use -fstrict-flex-arrays[=level] to control the behavior for the various
    legacy forms of specifying flexible array members.

    GCCs static analyzer has been greatly improved with 20 new diagnostic
    kinds.

    Link-time optimization now makes automatic use of GNU makes jobserver
    when that supports named pipes which it does starting with version 4.4.
    It is no longer required to alter makefiles.

    Support for new CPU features in the ARM, x86 family, RISC-V and LoongArch
    were added. Notably RISC-V supports vector intrinsics as specified in
    the 0.11 specification and OpenMP/OpenACC offloading to AMD Instinct MI200 series devices has been added.

    Some code that compiled successfully with older GCC versions might require source changes, see http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-13/porting_to.html for
    details.

    See

    This release is available from the WWW and FTP servers listed here:

    https://sourceware.org/pub/gcc/releases/gcc-13.1.0/ https://gcc.gnu.org/mirrors.html

    The release is in the gcc-13.1.0/ subdirectory.

    If you encounter difficulties using GCC 13.1, please do not contact me directly. Instead, please visit http://gcc.gnu.org for information about getting help.

    Driving a leading free software project such as GCC would not be
    possible without support from its many contributors.
    Not only its developers, but especially its regular testers and users
    which contribute to its high quality. The list of individuals is too
    large to thank individually!

    Question: does anyone know of a GCC 13.1 binary dist
    for Windows that include the Modula-2 frontend?
