Honestly, its really not broken. Here's the problem:

"The problem of compatibility, first argued in the earlier linux-kernel
thread, is that programs created with the 2.96 version of GCC are not
compatible with GCC 2.95.2, the last official release, and the future GCC
3.0 release, due to incompatible object files."
