Imho, the arm support in gcc-3.0/gcc-3.1 is better than in 2.95.x.
We are using gcc-3.0.4 (+small floating point patch)
without much problems with our own LFS based (mini)-distribution.
(with xscale as target cpu)
You could take a look at the testresults <http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-testresults/>
to see how gcc for arm compares to the other processors.
The only place were we are still using gcc-2.95.3+a bunch of patches
is when compiling the linux kernel.
