We have less headaches with gcc-3.1 on PowerPC. I do not want to switch
over to gcc-3.1 just for fun.
On PowerPC, if we stick with gcc-2.95, we have to use libstlport4.0,
which is not in debian. I think Torsten wont make a libstlport4.0 for
oldlibs, because, that is not nesessary, if we go over to gcc-3.1.

I read from Kevin B. Hendriks, OpenOffice.org for PowerPC developer,
that all needed pathes allready applied in CVS for 2.2.5 ...
JFYI
