I used gcc4 to build my clfs pure64 system and most of the patches i needed were stuff that you needed for gcc 3.4 anyway. Ive acutally had more issues with x86_64 then with gcc4. So my opinion is its ok to move over. I wont however say that it will work with everything but you will probably have just as much isssues with gcc4 that you do with gcc3 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
