I've been using gcc 3.4 and 3.5-head for a while and haven't noticed any
problems. The problem description of "things break all over the place"
isn't too helpful either. I'm not happy to put this patch in, which isn't
reproducible on my system and which are listed as "Reproducible: Always".

We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that
works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology.
