Has anyone tried GCC 3.2 with SuSE Linux 8.0?

Yes, but I install gcc compilers (and gdb if needed) from source via e.g. ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/gcc/3.2 Then I set PATH=/usr/local/gcc/3.2/bin:$PATH LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/gcc/3.2/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH This way, I can keep several versions of the gcc compiler without affecting the original gcc-2.95.3 setup.

What are the pros and cons?
