Especially because I plan to remove gcc33 now that we have gcc at 3.3
and add a new package gcc34 for the 3.4 snapshots ;-) My advise: Just
use the "gcc" package. It is very close to what gcc33 currently is,
because gcc33 is just at 3.3.1-snapshot. And if you really want bleeding
edge GCC 3.4, then _ADDITIONALLY_ install gcc34 package once its rolled
by me. Even the "with_gcc yes" option is just for package developers
during the release engineering phases or when preparing to upgrade to a
new GCC major version. OpenPKG packages are just tested and officially
supported when built with the gcc package. The gcc33 or gcc34 packages
are just for bleeding edge non-OpenPKG development, but not for building
OpenPKG packages with it.
