That's a tough claim, and you can't count on gnulib to help you on that claim. It's tough, because in my experience GCC 2.95 and 2.95.1 were buggy even at that time. GCC 2.95.2 was nearly OK. GCC 2.95.3 was really OK then. But nowadays, these compilers don't even compile from source code without patches. Even gcc-3.1 needs patches before it can be compiled [1]. So, from my point of view, gcc 3.2 should be the minimum anyone looks at. Gnulib documents its portability targets. [2] Systems that are 18 years old are not reasonable targets any more. This means, by using gnulib you can certainly get some problems from 2005 fixed. But don't count on us doing effort to help you regarding platforms that are that old. It distracts us from other useful work we could do.
