That is known to be mplayer problems. Same problems in their assembly as with gcc 3.0 > InterBase DBD driver Haven't seen. > > There are more, I just can't remember right now.

Uh... gcc 2.96RH is production quality, and the standard compiler. Gcc 3.0 is known to be buggy, and not of production quality. It's not used for anything, it's just a preview (it has more bugs, but it's also closer to the C++ standard than gcc 2.96RH). > RedHat have been flamed repeatedly since the release of RH7 over > this. By people not knowing what they're talking about. I'm not impressed by idiots who have bugs in their code, won't receive patches and requires you to type in untrue statements about the compiler (mplayer). > Just download GCC-2.95.2.1 and the PGCC patches pgcc? Now that's a known good compiler.
