gcc-3.0.4 release source archive is now available. 
Downloaded it from one of mirror sites. So I'm going to 
build it for DJGPP and upload files after some testing
unless there will be serious now problems

Most serious known problem is breakage of member 
functions tell[pg] and seek[pg] for classes 
fstream and [io]fstream when stream is opened in
text mode. Currently only possible workaround
is to open stream in binary mode if one needs to use
something more than plain sequential reading or writting 
file.

I don't think there is an easy fix this for this problem
(without significant changes in these classes) so I
perhaps have no choice but to leave this regression
against gcc-2.95.3 in. I also afraid it is not going 
to disappear in port of gcc-3.1 when it will be released.
As usually help in fixing this is welcome

It also seems that I'm only one who is running with similar 
problems with DJGPP port of gcc-3.0.X as I haven't seen
any related bug report in mailing lists (unless somebody
is keeping silence after runnning into a similar trouble)
