FWIW, I initially learned GCC by an internal training program Jeff Law devised over a decade ago (*). So perhaps there is some truth to the above statement. Of course, it didn't hurt that I had a cadre of good and patient maintainers willing to answer questions. [Before anybody asks, the training program is probably no longer relevant. So no fair bugging Jeff about it :)]. But anyways, that's just me. Different folk learn differently. Aldy (*) I think Alex Oliva was also a student of the Law training program :).
