Allow me to clarify, before anyone asks, we should only support gcc 3.0 and greater.

Adam/Andy,
Just to add my $0.02...
The gcc-2.95 compiler is quite old, we should consider problems that arise because of issues relating to gcc 2.95 to be non-release critical for GNUstep.
We shouldn't go out of our way to break GNUstep for gcc 2.95, but we should not bend over backwards to fix issues related to it either.
Later, GJC

The way I see it, gcc 3.0 was released on June 18, 2001. This is more
than 5 years ago. In the technology world, that is a very long, long
time. If there's really platforms that don't have gcc 3 or higher,
maybe it is just time for those platforms to be depracated (or they can
use an older version of gnustep).
Just my two cents,
Andy
