I decided it was easier to use a pre-built Mozilla binary. Until Sun get off
their backends and make a gcc 3.2-compatible JRE. They claim to be waiting
for more users in the community to switch to 3.2 before a release is
warranted... What gcc do SuSe and RH include as default these days? Gentoo
have been at 3.2 for quite a while. Oh well, I cannot complain about Sun's
price for this. So I will wait...
