GCC does not compile on glibc 2.95.2 because in _G_config.h it
defines the 64-bit file positions (_IO_fpos64_t, _G_fpos64_t, etc)
as structures rather than ints. GCC assumes streampos to be an int,
and references it as such, and subsequently fails compilation in
<gcc>/libio/indstream.cc in seekoff and seekpos
My linux distribution isn't a distribution-- it's purely from
scratch, compiled from the (nearly) latest software from ftp.gnu.org,
and various other sites. You really should make efforts to ensure,
prior to the release of software, that at least all GNU software
will compile with the new libraries and software. If they do not,
then the problem should be corrected and the libraries/software
released in a pre-beta state.
