or perhaps you refer to egcs, which was an earlier effort to
poke a stick in the lagging FSF effort
not to troll here, but the argument may be made that the 2.96
demoninated gcc variant was more stable (less 'broken') than
its upstream at like level. Bero is long gone from Red Hat of

May we have a new Subject on this drifted thread if it
