There worse than the patched version of 2.4.5 that's currently in the
NetBSD source tree.

Considering the schedule we're hoping for (don't ask now, it will be
announced when certain things get firmed up), 2.7.X will have to wait
until after the next release.

It would be useful for people willing to ride the bleeding edge to use
gcc 2.7.X and submit reports to the FSF for any (gcc) bugs they find.

I hear that 2.7.1 may be released soon.
