Hello to all,

Am I headed for trouble continuing to use gcc 3.4 to build Xen ? I find
gcc 4.1 just too noisy for my own comfort because I disagree with many
of its warnings. I have both installed, I lean on 3.4 most.

I know they are only warnings, but they indicate gcc is doing something
it didn't used to do before. I spent a while trying to study the two to
answer this one for myself but I found it best to ask. I have enough on
my plate just becoming proficient with C, much less its compiler :)

Am I ok to continue with 3.4?

Please reply to me (cc), I am not a subscriber.

Kind regards in advance,
--Tim
