Are there any architectures still requiring a gcc < 4.0 ?
Yes, sadly in some places (embedded) there are people with older
compiler who want newer kernels.
Last time I tried a mips build, it would fail the compile unless I was
using _exactly_ 3.4.4 (I didn't tried older versions, but did try
3.4.6, for ex.). So I also think the 3.4 series will still have to be
around for a while.
that's fixed and I'm happiliy building the MIPS tree with gcc 3.3.3.
And I would be very unhappy to upgrade all my crosscompiler just because
someone thinks nobody build -rc kernel with older compilers. I do.
