For what it's worth: I couldn't get John's recent stuff to compile with the
system compiler (2.7.2.2) because some of his tools use STL containers. I
then tried to build his tools (based on GCC 2.95) with the latest gcc port
(2.96). That failed as well (the 2.96 compiler complains about 2.95 source
code!)

I've been waiting for FreeBSD 4.0 to appear before trying again (4.0 uses
GCC 2.95 as the system compiler -- surely I can build 2.95 with 2.95!)
