Getting new compiler into oi-build would be nice, but it doesn't solve the 
problem with migrating stuff away from Sun Studio. Once, we are sure, that 
everything is buildable by GCC 4.4 (which we have already packaged), I have no 
doubt that transitioning to newer GCC painless. Correct me if I am wrong.

As I said, I am using GCC 4.4  because it is available.

Cheers,
