Soon will 10.4.2 be out. But some Mac users are/will still use 10.4.0, 
and we cannot force them to upgrade.
That's just what "for compatibility reasons" means. Because of this, I 
'll wait sometimes before to upgrade.

Any why not gcc-4?

First, gcc3.3 builds fine at least until m107 for me**, and after 
reading carefully a lot of informations about it, gcc4.0  is not yet 
optimized yet. IMHO.

Second, we have a least 2 stoppers and 3 important issues before to even 
think begin the migration for build with gcc4.0.  Sure if we have time, 
we'll have a look to for all breaks caused by gcc4.

For now, we're not enough to contribute, and have a lot to do, but sure, 
use gcc4.0 is a good idea and is in the roadmap,

Of course, you are welcome if you want to help for this change :-)
