Hi!

The status of Gcc:

 - Ported in upstream for GNU/KFreeBSD, and GNU/KNetBSD patch is synced with
   CVS and already sent upstream (with a pair of pings).
 - cpp preprocessor macros are fucked on both (e.g, __unix__ is not defined).
   Guillem, Santiago and Nathan expressed interest on fixing this properly.
   For now, I've been using a /usr/bin/gcc wrapper which works quite well.
   I'm attaching my current version of gcc.c in this mail.
 - We have only ported gcc 3.4, and since there isn't any gcc-3.4 package in
   Debian yet, we prepared a temporary gcc-3.4 package for our ports
   (gcc-3.4-tiny in gnuab deb-src). Santiago is currently maintaining it.
