Re: gcc 3.1 port on Mac OSX

Be aware that even the 3.1 compiler from the Darwin CVS is very much 
experimental.  It is being worked on by large numbers of people at Apple 
and the code changes frequently.  It now compiles most of the time, but 
there are no guarantees about any functionality.  Documentation is 
non-existent, and even the READMEs are horribly out of date

You need to monitor the Apple opensource darwin-gcc3 list which is really 
the appropriate place for this discussion.   If you are monitoring that 
list, be aware that the Apple engineers are working from a private cvs 
which is only periodically and unreliably updated to the public one.

As for that guy who is trying to compile gcc3.2 - the best of luck.  You 
will need it.
Gcc 3.1 is the bleeding edge right now - 3.2 is over the edge.
