Actually, I somehow have them both installed right now although I can't say that I've yet tried to build anything that uses c++ (except mozilla which never comes up). I forgot to set CXX when I rebuilt mozilla with gcc-3.0 so maybe I'll try that. Do you know anything about building with profiling enabled?

Ok, statically linked programs work. That doesn't buy me much since just about everything is dynamically linked against libc at least. -- Rick ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) http://dxr3.sourceforge.net http://rsub.sourceforge.net I think the slogan of the fansubbers puts it best: "Cheaper than crack, and lots more fun."
