They could, but you know, that many people prefer to compile everything on their own system ... I belong to these people, too.

But I don't think that justifies the cost of having two copies of the source. (The gcc-2.7.2 tarball is almost 7 megs!)

Deep in my heart I think, that someone, who has the whole sources unpacked has enough resources to store such a 7MB large file as well.

But if someone is really low on diskspace, so that he doesn't install the whole sources, is perhaps happy, to have that relativ compact 2.7.2 tgz archive, even if it is 7 MB large.

Make a copy of contrib/gcc under work/? :)

Shudder ;) No ;) I wouldn't vote for this. Please, let us keep things a they are.

I believe John Dyson has been using P5-optimized gcc for quite a while....

John, what do you think about integration some or all Pentium related patches into our main cc 2.7.2.1 ?!
