Well the one i have running now i got from sid, but the
that was in June last I update because the libc6 is stuck.
I have dowloaded the cvs sources because that was
reccommended I think as the best and simplest way to
try and use gcc4.1. I *think* this is maintained by geert
who claimed he had built 68k kernel with gcc4.1 since
last november.
I would also trust Finn's kernels as he is the most active
mac-68k developer. or Christian's.

Part of my question was how or why you have 3.4 when
I have 3.3, I cannot recall seeing 3.4 anywhere except
on gnu website so it may be you built it yourself from gnu ?
I have wondered if better to do that as some other distro
now has m68k in uClinux supports all versions of 68 k now so maybe
patches of debian are different, could
be debian has more bugs.
maybe the most difference in 4.1 for 68k in support for
coldfire which has some conflicts with traditional 68k.
but like I said supposedly uCLinux supporting both,
I don't know what is debian's position, there. (note I
am not talking about mmu support, that is settled, I
am talking about cpu instruction set conflicts).

I build on quadra630 with distcc on powerbook g3 ppc
both running sid and gcc4.1 of 15June2007.
