GCC is a bit of a problem. Need decent (well, almost acceptable) C++
support? 2.95.2 does an OK job (who wrote that fscking string class?).
Want a kernel? Use egcs. Well I use a CVS snapshot for everything and it
works, so nyer. :)
Well almost. Lots of "Internal compiler errors". And GCC has a crap bug
reporting system.

And yes, it's the kernel that's wrong, not gcc.
