Great, I think you have found a possible solution for my problem, at least I hope so...

I have found your second posting "g++ exceptions and gprof profiling", but I am not able to find the first one.

Could you please tell me where (URL) I can find patched versions of the gcc-Compiler-Set?
I think it would be much easier for me (and for many others too) if I don't have to compile my own fixed version...

Thanx, Roland

hmmm. If Qt is C++ (I seem to remember it is..), there are two possible
problems that I know of:

If it uses 'bool' types (in particular as the fifth or greater argument
to a function) then it won't work without the gcc patch I posted a while
back ("Compiler bug in g++ 2.7.2.1")...

If it uses exceptions then it won't work without applying the second
patch I posted ("g++ exceptions and gprof profiling"). There are still
some problems with exceptions though :-(

Seeya,
 Adam.

Real programmers don't comment their code. If it was hard to write, it
should be harder to modify. These are all my own opinions.
