I think GCC is a reliable tool. We don't need to have the old version to
co-exist for chaos. If you worry that GCC 4.0 doesn't work properly, why don't
you wait for a while for people's comments? With multiple versions of the same
development tool, you'll have infinite nightmares for your code.

Thanks.
