You can now get GCC 2.3.1 from pub/gnu/gcc-2.3.1.tar.Z
on prep.ai.mit.edu by anonymous ftp.  Compressed diffs
from version 2.2.2 in gcc-2.2.2-2.3.1.diff.Z are almost 2 meg.

Note that G++ is part of the GCC distribution since version 2 started.

The main new feature of version 2.3 is that it comes with a run-time
library for Objective C.

In 2.3, the built-in functions are much less insistent.  You do not
get an error for using their names for other purposes except when the
usage is contrary to the ANSI C standard.

This version supports two additional machines: the Alpha and the
Elxsi.  There is also some support for cross-compiling GCC itself.
There is better support for Linux, 386BSD, SCO, NeXT, and the GNU C
library.

You can order a copy of GCC 2.3.1 on tape from the Free Software
Foundation; ask for the "experimental tape".  Please order a tape if
you can, since tape orders are the FSF's main source of funds to pay
programmers and tech writers.  For ordering info, send mail to
gnu@prep.ai.mit.edu or contact the FSF:
