I would like to see GCC 3.2.1 release be our 5.0-R compiler. However,
the GCC 3.2.1 release date kept slipping and in fact was nebulous for a
while. The same for our 5.0-R. So this has made it hard to decided what
to do. I suspect GCC 3.2.1-R wouldn't cause us much or any problems.
But the question is does the project as a whole have the resources to
deal with any problems that do creap up? It is a hard judgement call.
