In such a situation the use of GNU Emacs can be handy: using its compile-mode
you can let it alone for this time (building GCC 4.4 or 4.6 lasts for days on a
PowerBook G4). When it's over you have a buffer *compilation* which you can
handle like a simple text buffer (though read-only by default), i.e., you can
scroll up and down, isearch, split it for comparison – and finally save it on
disk or overwrite its contents with a new compile/Fink action. Running it
inside a terminal you can put GNU Emacs in the background and allow it to
continue. You just need to keep that terminal... (or screen)
