Dudes,
If I had a dime for every time this question was asked, even though it's
on the FAQ, or for every time some person tried to get 2.90.8 up on
gcc-2.x and failed, or for every time some huge MT app in some
impossible-to-reproduce, crazy hardware situation telecom/financial
testing lab failed due to v2 MT string issues but passed with v3......
... there would be free empanadas and bordeaux for everybody.
