Popular platforms Switched To gcc 3.3.1 on NetBSD 26

Dan writes "The anticipated GCC3.3.1 switch on NetBSD has happened for some of the popular platforms. NetBSD's Matthew Green announced that he has switched the alpha, i386, sparc and sparc64 ports to use GCC 3.3.1 as the default system compiler. At the same time, NetBSD's Matt Thomas announced that the arm ports(acorn26, acorn32, cats, and shark) have been switched over as well."

    Does GCC now properly support -march=athlonxp ? (it was broken in x=3.2)

      Got any pointers to the brokenness ? I use -march=athlon-xp on RedHat 9 (gcc 3.2.2 + some patches) and it seems ok.
      Another point. Will NetBSD 1.6.2(or any 1.6.x) include this switch to gcc 3 ?
      Or is it a feature of the upcoming NetBSD 2.0 ?
      Which leads to; when can one expect NetBSD 2.0 ? This year ? 2005 ?
