My suggestion is that unless you really *need* the packaged version you
shouldn't bother - it's not even the standard version of any Debian
package

Has anyone successfully patched and compiled a pgcc/egcs package for
Slink? I was able to patch for Potato using the gcc source package and a
slightly older gcc source tarball patched with the pgcc patches.

Anyone know if there is a 3.3.3.x version of the XFree86 Debian files to
upgrade my Slink system? Reason is that I got this 3DLabs Video Card which I
am replacing and I do not like the idea of doing another 7 hours of compling

It should be compatible with anything Linux can run on...
say a i386, 4M RAM, 20M(?) flash drive and late '80s video.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but slink still uses gcc 2.7.2.1 for C compilation
(because pgcc/egcs hate the Linux 2.0 kernel). egcs is only used for C++
compilation.

I was trying to install from the rpms which I converted to debs using
alien. I didn't try installing from the source...I didn't really want
to because I don't really want it to take the place of my normal
gcc...I'd like to be able to remove it from my system easily.

Definately. Pentium optimised
It depends on how it's been optimized. The FAQ on gcc.ml.org tells me
that using -mcpu will produce code which will run on any Intel CPU,
but will run best on whatever CPU you specify. However, the
-march=cpu option, which turns on optimizations which make use of the
specific instructions availa

Which compiler is best, recommended, etc. Does one compiler optimize for
Pentium, PentiumMMX, PentiumII, K6, K6-2, Cyrix 6x86MX, Cyrix MII, IDT
Winchip6(-2). I know Swarc does the different MMX flavours and is working
on 3Dnow! (by using a variant on C). But will EGCC / PGCC ever support
these??
