If you don't care what the problem might be, you have a fatal lack of
understanding towards programming at all and IMHO shouldn't use any
compiler, because you could hit many more problems you don't want to
understand.

Have you ever taken into consideration, that it might be difficult to
describe an exact solution for a problem.
And of course, why do you use Cygnus' gcc, if you think its stupid.

Michael, who can't understand, why people always complain about things,
they could solve by reading *all* available information. and why people
also always complain about software, they can use for free and docs,
some people have written in their spare time.
