The glibc package is deprecated (it doesn't compile with the gcc4). I have no time to fix it but maybe someone of you has it (the redhat snapshots should be ok).

In the release notes of glibc 2.3.5 there was a notice about 2.3.6 that will get released once gcc 4.0 is stable. Since gcc 4.0 is only out for a few moments now, I think it's best to wait until glibc 2.3.6 comes out. The Gentoo people advise the same: http://ramblings.hudscabin.com/blogs/index.php/2005/04/22/gcc_4_0_0 I don't think it's a bad idea to wait for the next glibc release and start switching to gcc 4.0 then.

As the blog post says, gcc 4.0 should be compatible with gcc 3.4, so we
don't have to recompile the whole distro in one day to get gcc 4.0 moved
to current.

According the Redhat Mailing List the current snapshot is fully GCC 4.0 compatible. So why don't we upgrade? Some people talked about 5% - 10% more speed.

More speed? What the hell are we waiting for! Linux is as slow as hell.
