I'm just curious, if Mythcreator is willing to give it a try, purely as an experimental build whether he could try making a build with GCC 4.4.0. It is very much in testing stage, but snapshots can be downloaded by mirror sites. They're updated weekly according to the gcc site. One such site is:

http://gcc-ca.internet.bs/snapshots/

(of course then select the latest 4.4 folder at the bottom of the list)

Course could always build your own latest 4.4.0 snapshot from the GCC SVN

I realise you probably know all this already, I listed it in case anyone was wondering

GCC 4.4.0 supposedly has many optimisations that may finally allow it to be faster than GCC 3.4.6. Would be interesting to see anyway!

I know it,but 4.4.0 is still in develope, maybe have some serious bug in it
