GCC Compiler

[Timothy R. Morley]

Why do you say that?  I've never had any problems compiling anything on a 
Redhat box using the gcc-2.96 compiler.  Go to www.bero.org and you will find 
a writeup about the gcc-2.96 that ships with Redhat.  For some reason I can't 
get to that site right now otherwise I'd send the exact link. He has a good 
write-up about it.
