ok, i've never did serious comparation but c++ lib in gcc2 was really 
terrible. recently i was updating some lib, written originally for gcc2, 
where was a class derived from streambuf and iostream, and i must have 
one code both for vc6 and gcc3 and different for gcc2. if we look at 
stl: vector in gcc2 lacks even the at() method!

if i remember correctly this you can change by disabling language 
extensions (the problem is that than you won't be able to include some 
header files :-) )
