Yes good idea. I will build Gcc 4.4.1 today with the #pragma patch to support Wine. I saw the test results for Gcc 4.4.1 on Solaris 10. Failure counts have reduced markedly. Since we now have all the spec files ready updating to KDE 4.3 should hopefully be orders of magnitude simpler and not take too long.
