That version of gcc was getting pretty old though, and wasn't being actively maintained anymore. If you have any recent OS distribution from any Linux vendor, then you can get a good copy of gcc from there. They all have source RPMS of gcc, which are all pretty much the same compiler that I was maintaining on ftp.cygnus.com. For instance, on ftp.redhat.com, or any mirror, you can find this in /pub/redhat/beta/fisher/en/SRPMS/ia64/SRPMS/gnupro-1117-6.src.rpm If you want a completely up-to-date copy of gcc, then you have to get it from the FSF. For gcc: For binutils (as/ld/etc): However, these are development versions, and if you use them, you need to be prepared to deal with occasional instabilities. Also, there are some known bugs that need to be fixed before these will be widely used. E.g. there are kernel miscompilation problems to fix. Jim
