What about gcc-2.95 ?

I think I would have preferred a more consistent numbering system - a bit
like BOOST_VERSION maybe:
#define BOOST_GCC (__GNUC__*10000 + __GNUC_MINOR__ * 100 +
__GNUC_PATCHLEVEL__)
Of course even that can in theory go wrong, but it does make checks easier
to read (because of greater consistency between gcc 2 and 3):
#if BOOST_WORKAROUND(BOOST_GCC, <= 29500)
#else BOOST_WORKAROUND(BOOST_GCC <= 30400)
// etc....
Any other thoughts?
John.
