We cannot affect GCC 3.2.1 too much due to it > being on a release branch, and point release. But the GCC 3.3 release is targeted after 5.0-RELEASE (for Dec 15). And GCC 3.3.1 for Feb 15 2003. Using a pre-release compiler in a release version is IMHO somewhat risky. gcc 3.2 is scheduled for early August, so there's time enough to import and test it. Maybe even for 3.2.1. And the C++ ABI breakages/fixes will hapen with the 3.2 release... Just my 0.02¤ Marc To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
