Great that gentoo is now gcc3.x compliant :o) |
| 4 |
But what are the advantages of using gcc 3.x over gcc 2.95.x? |
| 5 |
Isn't gcc 3.x slower than 2.95? |

Thanks, great work! |

| 17 |

| 18 |

| 21 |

| 22 |
|| v2 and not gcc v3. |
| 23 |
|| |
| 24 |
|| There are still some packages that don't compile such as galeon and |
| 25 |

| 26 |
|| ;-) Feel free to submit fixes too. |
