I use the following compilers: $ g++-2.exe --version 2.95.3-10 $ g++-3.3.exe --version g++-3.3 (GCC) 3.3.3 (cygwin special) Copyright (C) 2003 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

There are third parties out there that use certain compiler version and just won't upgrade. Slight differences in compiler or compiled code can be a factor.
