I'm using Debian testing, but I can, perhaps, give GCC 4.1 a shot (if I happen to grab my hands on such patched tree soon enough). I am interested in anything that could bring me memory reduction. Actually, I am even considering using the -tiny patches here on my father's computer---an old Pentium MMX 200MHz with 64MB of RAM. Also, the PowerMac 9500 that I have here was inherited from my uncle and it has a slow SCSI disk (only 2MB/s of transfer rates) and 192MB of RAM. Anything that makes it avoid hitting swap is a plus, as you can imagine.
