Hi Eric and Christian,

so MacOSX is out of the picture with gcc-3.3 as well. Good. Now we just need a word from the *BSD side regarding gcc-3.4.

My proposal still stands:

- gcc-4.x.x is supported

- gcc-3.3 is not longer supported, patches aren't any longer accepted

- gcc-3.4 is deprecated, patches will be accepted up to including OOO330. Build breakers can't be flagged as "Prio 1", fixes will have to come from the port maintainers using this obsolete version as most developers will not have a way to fix or even to verify the build problem.

If I hear nothing in to the contrary for a week or so, I'll officially announce this as new policy regarding gcc support.

Thanks
   Heiner

anyone who ever did an aqua build that would run on 10.3.
So dropping gcc-3.3 would only affect X11-MacOSX. Is that one still
relevant at all?
In fact, nobody knows really : the X11 version is no longer maintained.

Yes, and I don't know a signle reason why anyone would want to use an
X11 version instead of the aqua version.
So it is in my opinion not relevant at all.

Does it still work?
Maybe it's possible to build it using gcc 4.0.1. Not tested since a long
while :)

My humble opinion is:  I got tiger on several machines. Tiger is the oldest
maintained version,  and gcc 4.0.1 is the one shipped with.

Fully agree - on mac 4.0.1 is the baseline, gcc 3.x is not needed at all

ciao
Christian
