->Quite an interesting point about gcc 3.3 though, does anyone know the actual
->status of this?

Well, concidering that SuSE are major contributors to GCC (which they
*never* get credit for) and the fact that they are so damn conservative
when it comes to adding things to the distro that make major changes
then I wouldn't worry about it. GCC 3.3 is just about to be released as
stable or so I've heard...I'm sure they tested it inside and out before
doing this. What I've heard from various SuSE people is that they pretty
much put a halt to the " let's add new features " mentality for this
release and just concentrated on making it stable as hell. I think they
took to heart what all of us wrote and said about 8.0/8.1 and got their
act together for this release. This might be one of those run forever
releases. :)
