The ones in -current certainly should be fine with gcc 2.95.3.

You mean it should be possible to modify FSF GCC so that it will work with -current? True, unfortunatly, without a few rabits/hats, that same GCC would break with all released NetBSDs.

Thing is you've this same problem twice - incompatible change. There is a window of oportunity here.
