Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

The recommended compiler for all current i386 Linux kernels (2.2.x and
2.4.x), is egcs 1.1.2.  Kernel 2.4 will not even compile with 2.7.2.3,
and 2.95.2 is known to be buggy, especially with regard to 'long long'
handling on 32-bit platforms.

It would be nice if someone could revive 'egcc' from the dead.
Actually it should be renamed 'kgcc' for compatibility with Red Hat,
Mandrake and Conectiva.

Kernel 2.2.x should compile with both gcc272 and gcc2.95 and
Documentation/Changes in kernel 2.4.14 says:

  The recommended compiler for the kernel is gcc 2.95.3 or .4

There seems to be no longer a need for a packaged egcs to compile the
kernel.
