any good reasons not to use gcc 4.1?

gcc 4.0.X has a lot of annoying bugs - and several of them are fixed in 
4.1 ...

 I used to run gcc-4.0.3 and latest glibc (don't remember the version
 number) some time ago.. But now running gcc-4.1.0 and glibc-2.4-r2.. No
 problems with both..

  Any hurdles to leap?

 Well except doing a emerge -e system  emerge -e world after upgrading
 to gcc-4.x, no hurdles to leap.. :)

Thanks for the info Farhan. I'm in the process of completeing the upgrade. So 
far, everything has been perfectly ok. It's all compiling cleanly, no errors 
and there's even a slight performance increase. I haven't done and real, hard 
performance evaluation... but my glxgears  number has jumped  from 800 fps to 
just over 1200 fps... and that was only after competing a  emerge -e system 
with the new glibc and gcc. I can;t wait to see what it looks like after a 
complete system recompile...

I'll be back after a day or so to report.

Cheers.

And thank you.

Jerry

Anyone here running a ~x86 box and have the latest glibc and a 4.0.3 gcc 
running on it?

Any hurdles to leap?

Thanks in advance,  Jerry

I think you are better running gcc 4.1. It _seems_ more compatible and stable 
than 4.0.x

venkman nbensa # emerge --info
Portage 2.1_pre10-r4 (default-linux/x86/2006.0, gcc-4.1.0, glibc-2.4-r2, 
2.6.16-gentoo-r6 i686)


Best regards,
Norberto
