Are there plans to update gcc in sfw from 3.4.3 to something more  
recent?

I'm struggling right now to build some code that pretty much *only*  
builds with gcc, but requires that data be 16-byte aligned on the  
stack. gcc 3.4.3 will not do that under certain optimization levels  
and AFAIK that's a bug fixed in gcc 4.2.

The code I'm building is HandBrake (handbrake.fr), which uses ffmpeg  
and libx264. SSE2 code in the latter library requires the stack  
alignment in the former library. If I build everything without  
assembly it works but a bit slowly ;-)

Cheers,

Chris
