For GTK, it really doesn't make a difference. For straight
C, pretty much anything goes. (If you are using gtk-- that
might be another story, I don't know)
For CORBA, if you are using a C++ ORB (MICO or OmniBroker),
I would recommend egcs-1.0.1. It's been out a bit longer than
gcc-2.8.0 and I've heard less reports of problems. (I'm
using it myself and it seems to work OK)
g++-2.7.x.x and glibc2 seem to be a bad-news combination -
I would avoid that. (But gcc-2.7.x.x works fine with glibc2,
at least for some values of x.x)
