More weirdness:  The latest version of GCC listed by
the zip picker is indeed 3.3.  But the latest
mini-FAQ, posted yesterday, lists the current version
of GCC as 3.2.3.  Moreover, on 5/13/03, Andris Pavenis
announced the release of GCC version 3.2.3 for djgpp,
but I don't recall seeing an announcement of the
release of GCC version 3.3 for djgpp.

So is it possible that the zip picker is erroneously
giving people links to downloads of a beta version of
GCC version 3.3, instead of a release version of GCC
version 3.2.3?

Best regards,

Tom
