gcc:

	PR target/69374
	* doc/install.texi (Specific) <hppa*-hp-hpux*>: Remove a note on
	GCC 4.3.
	Remove details on how the HP assembler, which we document as not
	working, breaks.
	<hppa*-hp-hpux11>: Note that only the HP linker is supported.

 @option{--with-as=@dots{}} options to ensure that GCC can find GAS@.
 
-The HP assembler should not be used with GCC.  It is rarely tested and may

-Specifically, @option{-g} does not work (HP-UX uses a peculiar debugging
-format which GCC does not know about).  It also inserts timestamps
-into each object file it creates, causing the 3-stage comparison test to

-@samp{make all-host all-target} after getting the failure from @samp{make}.

-Various GCC features are not supported.  For example, it does not support weak
-symbols or alias definitions.  As a result, explicit template instantiations
-are required when using C++.  This makes it difficult if not impossible to
-build many C++ applications.

 There are two default scheduling models for instructions.  These are

 architecture specified for the target machine when configuring.
