The Linaro Toolchain Working Group (TCWG) is pleased to announce the
2016.09 snapshot of the Linaro GCC 6 source package.

This monthly snapshot[1] is based on FSF GCC 6.2+svn239654 and
includes performance improvements and bug fixes backported from
mainline GCC. This snapshot contents will be part of the 2016.11
stable[2] quarterly release.
