I rebuilt my world/kernel with -CURRENT and then my software, xorg, gnome 2.6 etc. My questions is, everything ive compiled was with gcc 3.4.x thats in -CURRENT if i downgrade to 5.2.1 Release will this cause any problems with the software i compiled with the newer gcc. Reasons being for changing as i dont like being that much on the bleeding edge as im just a user not a developer, saying that thou these new drivers might not work out for me and i may end up going back to -CURRENT, as i had the libpthread > libr_c problem and had to map them with libmap.conf Anyway any opinions please as im going to do this tonight and if it means it will screw things up i might just reinstall.
