[C++ Toolkit ANNOUNCE] GCC 3.4.0 Released (and, a nice one!)

[Denis Vakatov]

...and we are about to switch our internal development to GCC 3.4.0.

We tried switching to 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3 series, but these had significant
issues. -- Desperate, we even applied a binary-incompatible patch (stolen
from the 3.4 branch, addressing large-file support) to 3.3.3 and decided
to go with it for internal development... but now, 3.4.0 seems to (finally!)
be the nice one :-).
