| Yeah, that's not what I've been talking about at all, what's your |

| point? I was saying that gcc-3.4 and better is stable everywhere |

Tradition for toolchain stuff has always been that anything allowed by |
| 13 |
the profile is considered acceptable for general use. So, if users |
| 14 |
shouldn't be using 3.3, the profile should be changed to say so. Until |
