I asked a few days ago if anybody knows of an effort to make GCC able to
compile 64-bit executables.  I didn't hear an answer.  I am asking this
question again because of something I just read by Linus in _Open
Sources_:*Voices from the Open Source Revolution*

Basically he said the ability of Linux to port to 64-bit chips is
directly dependent on the ability of GCC to compile for 64-bit systems.

Does anybody know?

The book is, BTW, quite an interesting read so far.

Steve
