Awhile ago (maybe just a few months - I don't remember) I "upgraded" from
gcc 2.7.2.3 to gcc 2.8.0. Recently (past couple of days) I read somewhere
that gcc 2.7.2.3 was still preferred for kernel compilations over gcc
2.8.0, pgcc, and egcs because the latter three can produce "bad" code. Is
this true? If so, is it really necessary for me to go back to using 2.7.2.3?
