From: "Ian D.

I'm sorry if this doesn't compile with * earlier compilers. I conclude that gcc-2 is explicitly un-supported. Looking at the patches that were used to get previous versions to compile under gcc-3, there are a bunch of changes having to do with handling of streams. I might be able to back-port it, but this seems like a lot of work for little gain: I'd mostly just be undoing the source cleanup effort by the original author (there are no bug-fixes or functionality changes listed in NEWS). It might be simpler to postpone the upgrade until most users are on gcc-3 equipped systems. Regards, Ian
