I would definately like to help in that effort. However, I'm not directly working on gcc 4.0 builds at this time. I noticed maveric's comments on the build web page and I will get the cws and try to build and test gcc 4.0 support. > > I think the > >> emphasis to this (and Eric don't be afraid to provide the facts) is >> that the MacIntel version of MacOSX will not provide X11 support and >> will provide limited Carbon/Java support. > > > I really have no clue if X11 will or not be provided by Apple, but > what I'am sure is that we cannot continue to use X11. > I would agree with that.

It may help with the effort, but I set it aside for the household move. I will be flying across the US next weekend and I may bring it with me so that I can read through it. They also maintain a web site for code downloads.
