hi -

I see this in the FAQ: 

        "If you are using gcc 3.0 and it gives problems or does not compile,
drop a note on the list with the oops and ksymoops output. We will be
working on getting XFS fully functional with gcc 3.0. "


does that mean the XFS team is planning on transitioning to 3.0 as the
'official' compiler in the near future?  I ask because seeing something
like this:

        "egcs-1.1.2 aka kgcc wont build 2.4.7 it seems."
(from http://uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0108.0/0309.html)

makes me a little nervous.  I don't really know what to make of that
since I've compiled 2.4.7 + XFS with kgcc (as have everybody else I'm
sure), but I wonder how much longer it'll be viable.


Matt
