The reason for the various gcc4 patches in different packages is because of imcompatibilities between gcc3 and 4. Some apps haven't been tested (or targeted) for gcc4, and so won't necesarily compile out-of-the-box with it (GCC4 is still a fairly minority thing). gcc3 has been around for a good long while and is included in most current Linux distros (not necesarily by default, but as a distro-managed package), and so it doesn't have this problem.
In general, you should be able to build packages from SVN BLFS on gcc3 if you simply don't apply any patches that are specifically for GCC4 compatibility. -- Lennon Victor Cook -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
