I understand Alfred's point, but I found the wording quite funny. The _definition_ of the GNU project is that it is non-UNIX ;-) You should note that, although Shap has expressed frustration about setting up cross-gcc environments, he still uses gcc! If he thought there were a better compiler for the work he's doing, he'd be using it. > Little boy, I was working on GCC right about the time you were learning > to read your first picture book.
