The official hamm version of the egcs suite, > which is now Debian's standard gcc, g77, and libstdc++. Debian folks should note that there is an accidental binary incompatibility between the gcc and egcs libstdc++ that will be fixed as part of egcs-1.0.2. This means that Debian should probably wait until egcs-1.0.2 (coming very soon) before distributing binaries that dynamically link against the egcs libstdc++.so shared library (unless you mark said binaries as "unstable", because they will be). After this is done, gcc-2.8.0 and egcs-2.8.1 will have link-compatible libstdc++ libraries, so C++ programs built by either compiler will work with the shared library from the other compiler.
