We use gcc-4.1 for the kernel anyway, rather than the default compiler. fwiw, i'm comfortable with switching the kernel to gcc-4.2. i've been using it for kernels on all my boxes since around christmas, i believe (when i found problems with gcc-3.4 that made me move.) i haven't tried it on any older boxes (pa1.1 based) but it seems to be working well enough both 32-bit and 64-bit on my newer machines. cheers, kyle -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

It fails with gcc-4.3, and works fine with all previous versions... I am actually asking that, because on the 3 problems detected when switching glibc from gcc-4.2 to gcc-4.3, 2 were due to a bug on the glibc side. Don't get me wrong though, I support switching to gcc-4.3 by default. If anything, more breakages gives us a better chance to debug it. Agreed. -- .''`.

I'd just need gcc-4.2 to stick around for a while for the kernel. regards, Kyle -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I reported the symptom and version numbers in this forum. To remind: the symptom was NIC driver ws reporting it could see traffic (ifconfig stats) but remote host was not seeing ICMP responses - only ARP traffic. thanks, grant -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
