But the GCC 3.3 release is targeted after 5.0-RELEASE (for Dec 15). And
GCC 3.3.1 for Feb 15 2003. Using a pre-release compiler in a release version
is IMHO somewhat risky. gcc 3.2 is scheduled for early August, so there's
time enough to import and test it. Maybe even for 3.2.1. And the C++
ABI breakages/fixes will hapen with the 3.2 release...
