Adding to your list of reasons are:
gcc/glibc upgrades have in the past required a full system recompile
from scratch: this happened for gcc 2.95 to 3.0, 3.1 (and 3.2?) and
looks like it will soon be neccessary with 3.3 if you want to get the
advertised gains.

So, you've got too much harddisk space, do you?
Kindly, send your excess harddisk space to me by e-mail, preferrably
