I'm a little sceptical: does any distribution already use a 3.x version ?
Mandrake 8.0 followed RedHat 7.? and provided the infamous gcc 2.96
(2000-07-31) compiler as the default one.

Actually kgcc = egcs 1.1.2 (that is gcc 2.91.66) on Mandrake 8.0, which is
pretty stable but rather old. From what I remember, my previous Mandrake
(6.1) already used it.
