Hi, I think if you search the mailinglist archive you will find your answer quickly (it has been addressed several times). Thanks, yes found it. But with the answers I'm very unpleased. I really really hope that we import either 3.2 or 3.3 now. Personally I'd go with 3.2. The fact is that

According to Terry Lambert: There's always waiting for 3.3 to be released before trying to incorporate it... There are too many code generation bugs in our version right now. Some ports need 3.1.1 from ports (remember our gcc is 3.1-prerelease). I don't care about 3.2 or 3.3, but I'd say go

Hi, Are any plans to move to GCC 3.2 in current? Since it is just an ABI change it should work, without changing anything. It would give us a stable, multivendor ABI to work off of for the next line of 5.x releases. Just a thought. Jesse Gross Yes, moving to gcc32 is highly

Yes, moving to gcc32 is highly desirable for -current, otherwise we will be stuck at gcc311 for the entire life of FreeBSD 5.x. The important question to ask is, who will do the dirty work? Moving to GCC 3.2 will do us no good. The lifetime of the 3.2 release will be pretty short and 3.3 is

I agree that gcc32 is not an ideal target either, but by going to it, we can upgrade to gcc33 when it's available and not loose binary compatibility (at least, according to the gcc folks). I'd rather move to gcc32 right now and get the binary compatibility pain out of the way, rather than

Cool. We can call it 3.3 in the release. Terry, we will name it the same way we name our current GCC 3.1 snapshots. FreeBSD always shipped tweaked version of GCC with a bunch of local changes merges in. In STABLE, for example, we have gcc version 2.95.4 20020320 [FreeBSD] Just like
