... and code in binary (www.kaniamania.com/html/1190.html)? :^)

Way to go, Greg. Never did trust gcc. Also have some apalling memories
of its early C++ handling. I prefer the native compilers, if they're
available, because it also tests your code for portability. I assume
Tom's Onyx runs IRIX 6.5 which requires a license for the compiler, in
which case gcc becomes an attractive option after all.

Yep. Also spared Greg's keyboard some unnecessary depreciation. :^)
