14 Exactly.

16 However, my current setup might help to some degree: I do have a buildbot running to bootstrap current Gentoo
17 Prefix instances (32bits only) with LATEST_TREE=yes once a week, with additional sync+update once a day (iirc).
18
19 The buildbot slave machines currently operating are (gcc-version as available on the login-shell):
20
21 ppc AIX 7.1 gcc-4.6.1, last success on 2013, Dec 29
22 ppc AIX 6.1 gcc-4.6.1, last success on 2014, Jan 8
23 ppc AIX 5.3 gcc-3.3.6, currently broken, not investigated yet, maybe going to become obsolete for us
24
25 x86_64 RHEL 6.2 gcc-4.4.6, last success on 2014, Jan 8
26 x86_64 SLES 11.1 gcc-4.3.4, last success on 2014, Jan 8
27 x86_64 RHEL 5.4 gcc-4.1.2, currently broken due to glibc-2.5
28 x86_64 Gentoo amd64 multilib gcc-4.6.3, currently broken due to /lib -> /lib64 symlink
29
30 x86 Windows Server 2003r2 gcc-4.2.4, currently broken, let's wait for the result of this week's workshop with Microsoft
31
32 x86 Sun Solaris 10 gcc-3.3.6, currently broken, not investigated yet, going to become obsolete for us
33 sparc Sun Solaris 10 gcc-3.4.6, currently broken, not investigated yet, going to become obsolete for us
34
35 ia64 HP-UX 11.31 gcc-4.2.3, currently broken, obsolete for us
36 hppa2.0w HP-UX 11.31 gcc-4.4.3, currently broken, obsolete for us
37
38 However, our own stable Gentoo Prefix distro installation based on an old snapshot from 2010 is
39 maintained by myself on the above ones (not updated any more on HP-UX), and these ones as well:
40
41 x86_64 RHEL 5.4 gcc-4.1.2
42 x86_64 RHEL 6.3 gcc-4.4.6
43 x86 RHEL 6.5 gcc-4.4.7
44 x86 SLES 10.2 gcc-4.1.2
45 x86 Gentoo x86 gcc-4.4.5
