Hi,

I intend compiling X11R5 patchlevel 21 this weekend on a Sun 3/60. I have 
gcc-2.3.3, I noticed that usually if I set HasGCC in site.def, then 
the libraries and some other stuff are still built with cc. Gcc is used
for the server code.

Why is this? Can I use this (later) version of gcc?

Also, if I need to interrupt the compile, do I have to do a make World
again (& redo lots of stuff) or is a make everything ok?

Any comments appreciated, (Email to .sig addresses preferred) 

Simon
