It sounds like people are mostly concerned about sun studio and xlc? It
doesn't seem that hard to provide precompiled binaries for those two
platforms, and maybe 4.8 binaries for people who want to compile theire
own gcc from source. If that would be enough to deal with people
concerns it seems doable by next stage 1?
