Re: Will GCC 4.3 or 4.4 work on the AlphaServer anytime soon?

[Robert Garron <Robert dot Garron at Access3000 dot net>]

wow, just received this response from December 2008 -- 2 month delivery via 
the internet
I will look at the test results and try to compile, I have been compiling 
other stuff using gcc, but I never compiled the compiler, so I will 
certainly try this!  A huge thanks to your time and response!

Best wishes,
Robert
