That depends... there are actually *two* compilers in the april dev tools. A gcc2 that is slightly updated (bugfixes) from the developer one, and then a prerelase of the gcc3 compile. gcc2 is the default, and if you're using that with fink, there are *not* C++ ABI changes, everything should work just fine. If you decide to try out gcc3 (`gcc_select 3`), a whole lotta stuff will break. Many packages don't yet play well with the new gcc, much less the issues of mixing-n-matching C++ stuff built with the 2 different compilers. _______________________________________________________________ Have big pipes?
