Bear in mind that GCC is almost certainly masked for good reason. It's not like you're using a binary distro and only need a compiler for a few packages. Feel free to try it in the knowledge that if it breaks your system, you get to keep the pieces.
Ain't it the truth! No, I wasn't asking with the anxiety to hurry things up - I was asking more about an estimated release time, whether it will be a month, 2 months, 3 months, etc. I'm not really looking to "experiment" with the cutting-edge releases right now. My aim is to build a fast, stable system for my computations, which ultimately brought me to another major decision: 32-bit or 64-bit... I run simulations which I write in C and numerical computations which I run in Mathematica (which has just released the 64-bit version). Would a 64-bit system significantly benefit these applications? -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
