That's good news for me, since I am having trouble compiling the 2.4.13 kernel with 3.0.1 (internal error) AND 2.96 (under investigation)... so I can try a new one :) But where is that good old 2.95.x? I just can't find it at the moment! Really, well done guys!" The site says this is mostly a bugfix release, but if you need those particular bugfixes, please use one of the mirrors. And remember, they do take appreciation is cold, hard cash, too :)

    Huh?

    Will it compile ISO Standard C++? That's all I care about. If it detects nonstandard code in my stuff, then I can fix my stuff.

    I can't wait for the day when a configure script says "g++ x.y found, no further compiler checks needed."

  3. Re:binary size by ChadN · · Score: 2

    Can you show us the sizes of the "stripped" binaries? Also, I just compiled my C++ program w/ 3.0.2, and it was the same size as 2.95.4 (prerelease), to within 0.1%. However, I'm not making heavy use of templates. Without seeing the source, we can only speculate as to your specific results...
