while this is totally unrelated to my questions, I think the
comparison is somewhat warped.
Linux is one of major GNU "customers" and egcs was trusted to become
the official version of gcc by GNU. I would expect this assumes some
responsibility.
RPMs are used on most distros, RedHat is one of major distros
(statistically most popular?). Also, the PC platform is clearly dominant.
I doubt that BSD on VAX ever enjoyed such a popularity.
I am very surprised that you are trying to marginalize a common
platform and explicitely refuse to ensure consistent effort.
Igor
P.S. yes, I do understand that everyone is a volunteer and can
dissapear forever in 5 mins, but I am not asking you to thank me
for sending you bug reports.
