WHY do you need to make world with GCC 2.95.2?  Gcc 2.7.2 acutally
produces smaller code.  For some things even faster code.  What is so
glammorous about a Gcc 2.95 built world and kernel?

Use the base compiler to compile the product and install the `egcs' port
for your own code.  The big short falling with Gcc 2.7.2 is a total piece
of crap C++ compiler.  Since the only thing written in C++ in /usr/src/
is groff (and very old style C++), who cares.

Send patches then, if you are a programmer.
