From your original message I understood that this is only true for
the EGCS distribution, gcc281b.zip is unaffected by this.  Did I 
misunderstand you?

How can we be sure that removing it won't break more things?  This is my 
primary concern for v2.03: I want a stable bug-fix release that would not 
break anything.

If COMPILER_PATH is bad today, wouldn't it affect people who use GCC 
2.8.1, or install RSXNTDJ?  If so, I wonder why don't we hear about such 
problems on c.o.m.d.  Perhaps some other factors are involved here?
