From the compiling-for-the-future department...

Marcin "ahwayakchih" Konicki, formerly known as Shard, has posted his port of GCC3.4.3 to BeBits. Sharing a page with Oliver Tappe's GCC 2.95.3, it is the first publically available GCC3 for BeOS.
 
Whilst the compiler is fully working, it cannot be used to replace your system compiler. This is due to the different C++ ABI used in GCC2.x and GCC3.x, and is a problem that affects all systems that use GCC, including Linux. You can however compile any C/C++ applications that do not use Be's libraries, so most command line applications and some SDL applications will be able to be compiled with it.
