Thanks a lot for your help. I also compile all my stuff on GCC 2.95.2
without having any troubbles at anytime. I'm just wundering what the GREAT
difference between the releases could be. I mean the language for example
"C" doesn't change... But the changes are as big as the kernel wont
compile on GCC 2.96? thats strange to me... I mean it's not important and
doesn't stress me (hehehe) in anyway just strange...
cheers,
Raffaele
