   I don't think it would be a great problem for most packages. However, I
   don't trust egcc enough yet. There have been reports of bad kernels as a
   result of compilation with egcs (http://www.reference.com, mailing lists,
   "egcs + kernel"). 

IIRC, the problems with kernel compilation were related to kernel
bugs, not bugs in egcc.
