GCC3.1 just released - already a system compiler


Hi,

Mandrake is using GCC-3.1 as the system compiler for their "Cooker" 
development distribution. They compile everything with it. Many packages are 
already compiled with GCC-3.1 (including kernel, glibc-2.2.5, KDE 3, Mozilla, 
Perl,  and many more). I think their next distro will be based on GCC-3.1

I think Mandrake is doing a great service for testing GCC-3.1. Of course there 
are some compatibility problems with other packages that were compiled with 
their previous system compiler, but they are in a middle of the transition 
period.

I think this answers some questions that were asked here (GCC release 
criteria)

Thanks GCC Team
Eyal.
