[Bernhard Rosenkraenzer <[email protected]>] Re: Linus: "RH7==broken gcc" -- somebody comment?






Voici la réplique d'un membre de Redhat au sujet de GCC pour ceux
que cela intéresse ....

2.96 is neither untested nor unstable nor broken. Unreleased, yes.

Show me any remaining bugs in 2.96-69 (rawhide and soon errata) and I'll
show you 2 bugs in 2.95.2. ;)

Don't you think that compiling our entire distribution, including
Powertools and other add-ons isn't stress-testing a compiler?

2.96 was not some random CVS snapshot; it was a carefully chosen CVS
snapshot with a series of patches to stabilize it.

If you have any actual problems with 2.96-69, go ahead and complain about
them. Don't complain about a compiler just because someone said it was
unstable and untested.
