The debate was about whether we should compile Haiku with GCC4 instead of GCC2.

Including GCC 4 libraries and compiler in addition to GCC2 libraries
and compiler on DR1 is a seperate issue.

It is at this stage important I believe for Haiku to be build using
GCC2 until such time as we are fully capable of self hosting the build
process on Haiku.

I have no other option but to use GCC2 to build Haiku.  If we switch
to GCC4 then I am up the creek without a paddle.
