+Features you cannot find in the doco as working, should be mentioned here.
This is an assorted collection of stuff that will be done, might be
done, or is an idea that I want to think about
Most of the items are marked in the code as well, with full explanation.

+
+3RD PARTY BUGS:
+
+ * tried egcs 1.0.2: failed on lily/stem.cc -> flower/include/interval.hh
+ should narrow down and send bug report
+
+ * gcc 2.8.1: see ice and RESIZE_ICE
+
+ * xdvi: PS in magnifying glass.
+
+ * GNU patch 2.1: hardcoded limit of 1024 to the linelength
+
+ * GNU diff 2.7: diff -rN does not see a new directory with empty file
+
+ * GNU patch 2.1: <must find simple example> if patch chokes on a
+ hunk, or on allegedly unsorted hunks in a diff, it may stop
+ without a trace of failure (create .rej file, print error or
+ dump core) and just ignore any further diffs.
