The shared libgcc1 is built by gcc-3.0 and gcc-3.1. The libgcc1 package is built from the gcc-3.1 sources. > Is it that "gcc" now points to "gcc-3.1" by default on ia64 ?

Maybe it's better to keep out 3.1 out of testing at all. gcc-3.2 will be released soon (3.2 == 3.1.1 + g++ ABI changes). the error in the copyright file is not the only reason, the build of the sparc64 compiler currently fails.
