        Thanks for the tip. I have this package installed. Unfortunately it
        did not create the link for me (package version 1:3.0-0pre010427).
        Looks like that could be a bug ?

        Ok. I've made the symlinks manually, and have a build currently
        running with gcc-3.0.

        Thank again for your help.

        Cheers,

        Marcus
