Actually gcc 2.96 is the most stable version of gcc currently. It fixes
many more bugs than it creates.
The reputation of being binary incompatible is mostly based on rumors: it
affects only dynamicly linked C++ code; and this same incompatibility
exists between egcs-1.1.2 and gcc-2.95, and will exist between gcc-2.95
and gcc-3.0.
Did you know that Alan Cox recently said on LKML that Linux kernel 2.4.3
now needs to be compiled with gcc >= 2.96 ?
