| That's not the whole story. When testing with GCC 3.3.1 prerelease I noticed
| that setting -fabi-version isn't necessary anymore. So I filed a bug report

| http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=11105 leads me to believe that
| GCC 3.3 was too conservative w.r.t. ABI compatibility.
|
| Due to this and the fact that there's been another bug in GCC 3.3
| (http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=11198) which manifests when
| using ublas, I tend to advise against using GCC 3.3 for ublas.

GCC-3.3 is GCC-3.3.0 in disguise and I tend to refrain myself from
using .0 releases outside of experimental works :-).

More seriously, did you have a chance to test GCC-3.3.1?
