I'm still using the old toolchain and compiling natively.  I wouldn't
say that -current is "badly broken", but I've mainly been playing with
the kernel.  I've compiled some random userland programs, but that's
about it - I haven't tried building a complete snapshot for example...

I plan on having another look at gcc 3.x soonish; I haven't done so for
a couple of months.

Simon.
