Current CVS sources of GCC definitely are not production quality. I get
slower code with higher memory consumption during compilation which takes
significantly longer for C++ code I tested.
(AFAIS using GCC 2.96 breaks binary compability now and again in several
months, when GCC 3.0 will be released.)

Our site is correct. GCC 2.95.3 does not exit (yet, and it's not even sure
whether it will ever exist).
