Try using an offical official GCC release.  I've been using GCC 2.95
for a month or so with no problems.  Before that I used the release of
GCC suggested above by Seth.  GCC 2.96 as shipped by Red Hat is an
unofficial release of the GCC-3.0 CVS development branch.

The ONLY grief I have had with XFS from CVS is on an untried platform
with an untried compiler.  GCC 2.95 on IA-32 should be trouble-free.
