- Not a great loss... The only thing that REALLY bugs me, is the way Sun is
- using the FSF (gcc), to provide a compiler (Which happens to be better than
- their own, at least at 4.1.x) for 'free'.
-
- Yo Sun, how about providing that outdated 4.1.{2,3} source for free on the
- net? Common, what have you got to loose?
