gcc 2.96 is faulty compiler and that's is an optimistic overview. Redhat has screwed when they decided to ship their distro with it, anyone using 2.96 should either take the time to upgrade to 3.2, which from what I hear is quite good or downgrade to the solid 2.95.3



You still need to apply good good 4 or 5 patches to gcc 3.2 before it's useable.

Here are some of them:
