Maybe, but this is not very urgent from my point of view. gcc-3.4 is 
development, it is not widely spread on the apple side and people who 
want to play with can ask. Per had his answer within 14 minutes :)

There is also another reason I don't think it is that urgent. I want to 
wait for panther (Mac OS-X 10.3) and see how gcc 3.4 and friend works 
before I spend some more sweat on it.
