Hi All,

I am trying to compile some GNUstep software - MusicKit and SndKit for my debian ppc 
box; I'm helping out on the project where I can (mainly documentation so far). After 
some successful compilations of various components a gcc compiler error appears:

parseScore.m:1465: Internal compiler error in `schedule_region', at haifa-sched.c:7777

Google points me to some messages saying this has been fixed in 2.95.2, but this is 
Potato stable and gcc -v gives me that. Try another version of gcc he thinks. 
Downloads source for 2.95.3 (warned against 3.0 by one of the developers), compiles in 
home directory, configured ultimately for /usr/local/.

Now for a very stupid question. How do I avoid interfering with my dpkg'd 
/usr/bin/gcc? Rename it temporarily before a make install on the new version? Is there 
an archive from which I could get a suitable .deb package for an earlier release of 
gcc even?

Although some might suggest I go back to doing what I actually know about, one of the 
developers in particular is keen to know whether the software compiles on something 
other than intel machines.

Thanks,

Denis Crowdy
