1) Why did Apple not think that GCC in good for the long run in your

Because they did not see a short term benefit at all and the place is
run by middle/upper management when it comes to day to day decisions.

Hmm...really? I haven't been following this too closely, but that's
not the impression I got from Steve Naroff's presentation (http://llvm.org/devmtg/2007-05/09-Naroff-CFE.mov
). So it didn't have anything to do with working with a maintainable
and modular code base, issuing better diagnostics, providing better
IDE integration, having the ability to create non-fat universal
binaries, or post-link-time optimization? Maybe I'm just not
skeptical enough.
