I haven't had any big problems with new compiler versions and the code has gone through something like gcc-2.7.x to gcc-4.x. And actually gcc-3.x was the first one which had really working C++ compiler. All of the 2.x series had broken exception handling. Making any assumptions on compiler behaviour except those clearly stated by the standard is dangerous. I usually compile the code using 3-4 different C++ compilers to verify it's functionality. Unfortunately the inline asm parts have to be removed for some compilers, but those are architecture specifics anyway and always have a pure C++ implementations also. -- Jussi Laako <jussi.laako(a)pp.inet.fi>
