gcc defaults to gcc-4.4 on Alpha whereas all other architectures (except m68k and maybe hppa) now default to gcc-4.6. A few packages are failing to build with gcc-4.4 as the package maintainers are starting to exploit gcc-4.6 features.
I had intended to do some testing of gcc-4.6 but have never got around to it. As (essentially) all other arches are using gcc-4.6 I expect the likelihood of any nasty surprises is very small. Does anyone object to me requesting the gcc maintainers to default gcc to gcc-4.6 on Alpha?
