[CentOS] More than 1 GCC version?

Thanks for the history lessons, Bryan.

This suggests to me a GCC flag 
-fForgive2.9xUsers 
which would accept syntax and grammar from code valid to 
the 2.9x compiler (warn rather than barf).  This isn't the 
compat compiler/lib suite (which is a separate option), but
is a grace-rather-than-pedantics approach to compiler
evolution.

Again, blame the GCC 2 developers.

*sigh* Blame helps Nowhere...
