Sarges toolchain is frozen, and if we want to release at all, the answer is: Sarge will release with gcc-3.3 as default compiler, but gcc-3.4 is also included. However, I really hope that we manage to release etch a bit faster than sarge. Cheers, Andi -- http://home.arcor.de/andreas-barth/ PGP 1024/89FB5CE5 DC F1 85 6D A6 45 9C 0F 3B BE F1 D0 C5 D1 D9 0C
