Did anyone notice GCC 3.2.2?

I think it still needs a fair amount of testing. Don't automatically assume that just because the last version (2.95.3) was stable yet still in the alpha section the same applies to all alpha releases.

It has been a subject discussed a bit on the GG mailing list, but I have to agree that I'm surprised no one has mentioned it elsewhere since.

why? simply renmae the execs like this

gcc->gcc3
g++->g++3
etc.

you will then have to alter any makefiles to use gcc3 instead of gcc, but big deal.

Actually,  if you d/l the gcc3_notes.tar.gz file from the same archive it mentions running gcc 2 and gcc 3 side by side, and the steps needed to get it working properly.
