I really *really* don't have time to follow all the threads, so you'll
have to forgive me missing that. Like I said, the last I heard of it was
licensing issues. And quite frankly, personally, I don't want to see egcs
as the requirement till egcs gets a lot better. IMHO, quite frankly, egcs
has a LOT of room for improvement on *every* architecture. 

Anyways, it's not surprising to me. It's not logical to promote someone
else's product over your own. You won't hear an AT&T employee telling you
to go with MCI. ;P
