Keir,

what are the exact issues that required this change? SLES9 being based on
gcc 3.3.3 makes it pretty undesirable for me/us to have this kind of a
requirement. Despite me certainly being able to compile newer gcc-s (I
actually have these around all the time), the mere fact to remember to pass
a CC= each time I want to build Xen is going to make this cumbersome.

Hence I'd like to understand the underlying issue(s), see whether they apply
to the 3.3.x versions we have in use (aside of SLES9 I also continue to have
one 9.0 system around that I use for regular building and testing).

Thanks, Jan
