GCC 3.2 Released

bkor forwards the GCC 3.2 release announcement, without attributing it as such: "The GCC 3.2 release is now available, or making its way to, the GNU FTP sites. The purpose of this release is to provide a stable platform for OS distributors to use building their next OS releases. A primary objective was to stabilize the C++ ABI; we believe that the interface to the compiler and the C++ standard library are now stable. There are almost no other bug-fixes or improvements in this compiler, relative to GCC 3.1.1. Be aware that C++ code compiled by GCC 3.2 will not interoperate with code compiled by GCC 3.1.1. More detail about the release is available. Many people contributed to this release -- too many to name here!"

    Heh..Like to keep your job?
    Or are you just planning to be the sole maintainer for the life of the code? =)

    Good thing I didn't waste an entire f*cking week compiling Gentoo 1.3 with GCC 3.1. It would have been a STUPID WASTE of time if I had done that. Yeah, good thing I saw this coming.

    GOD DAMNED PIECE OF F*CKING SH*T!
