Hello, I have two issues with selecting the appropriate version of gcc: 1, There is the port net/verlihub, that needs gcc 3.3 that is broken under amd64. What solution do You recommend? I haven't used the compatibility layer yet, but what if I make buildworld/installworld to enable the compatibility layer? Is there any way to cross-compile ports similar to "make TARGET_ARCH=i386 buildworld"? Is this macro usable with ports collection like "cd /usr/ports/lang/gcc33 && make TARGET_ARCH=i386 install"? 2, There are gcc snapshots in the ports collection like lang/gcc34, lang/gcc40, lang/gcc41, but there aren't releaes, just snapshots. Are these gcc snapshots as reliable as the releases are? Can I use for instance lang/gcc34 for production goals instead of the stock compiler, or is it just for development/testing usage? Cheers, Gabor Kovesdan
