GCC 2.8.1 is the latest release of the GNU compiler suite.
It is a port for now, until its stableness and ability to produce
a working kernel and "make world" is proven.
C++ support, and in particular template support, is vastly improved over
gcc-2.7. G++ 2.8.1 also compiles SGI's offical reference implimentation
of the STL.
Beware: This port installs new versions of "gcc", "g++", and so forth
into the "${PREFIX}/bin" directory. Mind your PATHs if you don't want
to use this compiler by default. However, "cc" and "c++" will not
be hidden by this port.
