On IA32,

bash$ gcc -v
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/2.96/specs
gcc version 2.96 19991114 (experimental)
bash$ 

I believe that the Red Hat 6.x compiler (egcs 1.1.2 based) is too old,
GCC 2.95 might be OK (although don't quote me on that); I'm not sure
of the exact cutoff.

If the egcs vs. gcc numbers are confusing, there's a table somewhere
on http://gcc.gnu.org/ which gives the correspondance between the
egcs 1.1.* numbers and the 2.90.* style numbers.
