I've just done that with the same result. hello.cpp AND hello.c are
causing a kernel panic when being compiled with g++ on my
A3000.

There were some very old ones in /usr/lib. I backup'ed them to another
place and have done a ldconfig -m /usr/lib afterwards and it didn't 
solve the problem.

Of course. My first thought after getting kernelpanic was that it has got
something to do with a new virtual function but i tracked it down to
hello.cpp (like hello.c but using cout instead of printf and iostream.h, of
course).

I would like to do so, but i'm afraid to overwrite parts of the still
installed
gcc2.7.2, so i'm trying to isolate the problem a bit closer before 
"downgrading" to bin11-gcc.
Checking out part b) tomorrow.

Of course. It's very painful if a compiler doesn't work after upgrading your
OS :-(
Isn't it possible, that the kernel-panic is a result of missing files while
upgrading. Just can remember that there was a problem

Thank you very much!
