from the GCC pages....

3.3 was released about 10 days ago.... but in a quick scan there 
don't seem to be any BIG ABI issues (altho someone other than me

Thoughts on which version to use?

when I look on sun freeware, I see 2.95 and 3.2.3 -- anyone know 
whether solaris sysadmins typically install from the gcc site, or 
from sun freeware?

Guess we'll talk about this some during tomorrow's call......
