12 Nope. We don't want to remove that choice from the user. We are
13 working now towards the 2006.0 release, which means GCC 3.3 will not be
14 present in the stage1 tarball. Basically, wait for 2006.0, or follow
15 the standard steps to switch compilers yourself. It's not like we're
16 forcing you to keep both compilers. ;]
