How can this be a compiler issue? I thought this was a programming bug? It 
however remains curious why redhat and mandrake seem affected anyway.. but I 
see no reason why it would be compiler related.. It's just a flawed function 
somewhere.. not?

Yep, I am.. There are a lot of tools that even require 2.95 or 3 even to 
allow you to build.. (mainly video software, because pentium-mmx manipulation 
seems really messed up)
