Most things compile with egcs (I'm using egcs-2.92.07), and it is more
stable than any pgcc I've run (although less than the system gcc), but
a few kernel files (eg dev/ppbus/vpoio.c) don't compile with it. I've
successfully built a kernel by using gcc only for these files and
egcs for the rest though. YMMV as this is running an old (August) snapshot
release.
