Out of curiosity, if this goes into effect before 2006.0 is released, |
34 |
then ALL the stages for x86 and the livecd would be built with gcc34? If |
35 |
so then I think this may benefit alot of users, especially ones that do |
36 |
a stage1/2 just so they can shove gcc34 into there system at an early |
37 |
stage. Also, if gcc34 gets moved to x86, would gcc40 be ~x86? This I see |
38 |
as a bigger problem for those of us that are already running gcc34. But |
39 |
I'm sure many ~x86 users would welcome that, after all what fun is ~x86 |
40 |
without some breakage every now and then ;-) |
