Hi,
I would like to be able to use a different compiler to build and run
some of my own applications on Netbsd 1.6.1. The native compiler is gcc
2.95.3 and I would like to use gcc 3.3.x (because of exception handling
problems in 2.95). What concerns me is shared library compatibility -
especially X, QT, GL etc - since I know that the C++ ABI differs between
those 2 gcc releases.
Does anyone know of any documentation which might cover this, and if
anyone has tried something like this I would appreciate any hints or
advice,
Many thanks,
Stuart
