I know that {p,}gcc-2.95.2{,.1} are not officially supported.
Did you know that it's impossible to compile nfsv4 because of
register allocation problems with long long since (long long) month ?
The following does not hurt, it's just a fix for a broken
compiler:

Here is an example without this patch (pgcc-2.95.2.1 this time which
is bug-compatible to gcc-2.95.2.1).

The question is: Is it worth to apply ?
