FYI, the KDE project just blacklisted gcc 4.0.0, because "it is known to 
miscompile KDE. Please use a newer version, or if that is not yet available, 
choose an older version."

No, I don't know what the exact problems are, but they are obviously severe 
enough for KDE to say "no thanks" to 4.0.0.
