What happens we you (try to) upgrade the c/c++ compiler on the NeXT to a newer  
version (i.e. gcc 2.0, 2.1).  It is my understanding (from the man page) that  
NeXT put a lot into the version that they shipped.  What is the practive and  
experience of people using the newer gcc versions -- do you have to retain the  
older version for compatibility and use the newer version just for stand alone  
projects; is any aspect of objective C broken in the new gcc releases; how do  
you manage to install the new version without interfering with the NeXT  
supplied header files, etc.

Can anyone elaborate on the proper why to update the NeXT platform.  Does NeXT  
have any explicit recommendations and will they be shipping a newer version  
with the 3.0 OS -- how will that version relate to the GNU versions?
