Woohoo! That's good news for my ultra :-) > What I want to do is upload the current snapshot I have (since I know it > to be working) into unstable.

No objections, per se, nor any patches YET. Alpha's got a really ugly problem that I've been trying to solve for a few weeks now (more off than on). It seems that while linking Qt (mozilla also...any complicated multiple-inheritence C++ code), it coughs up a bunch of unresolved symbol problems relating to "Non-virtual thunk to ....". GNATS has a bug against it already, or else I would've filed one on our BTS and GNATS. Do you know of any other archs seeing this? Mips used to but it supposedly went away (btw, they may benefit from a 3.0 snapshot as well, but I haven't tested it too much yet on my indy). Aside from all of that, I say upload 3.0 to unstable. At least gcc-defaults gives us the flexibility to switch each arch as needed (thanks for that). C
