Monday in Hawaii is basically Tuesday in New-Zealand
(23 hours difference right now), so you should make
clear in which timezone you define the 48 hour period.
Apart from this I have nothing to say about the convenience
of such a freeze, I'm mostly a lurker who regularly bootstraps
GCC (once a week or so) but have not had any problem in a long
time compiling my own rather simple code.
I'd just like to take the opportunity to thank all the
people who make this great compiler available.
