Don't remember but apparently the guy had benchmarked it. About
crashes, since both gcc 2.95.2 and gcc 2.96 are crashing (and gcc 2.95
built fine in 6.2) I would point to glibc. If it builds for you and
not for me then causes could be:
-I use more agressive flags than you (-O3)
-You compile gcc with an older glibc and then you go for compiling the
newer glibc. BTW that glibc is an unofficial version.
