In fact, the issue raised is much more general: from long experience with SGI we (CDF) know that native FORTRAN (this is just an example) compiler coming with any new version of OS contains bugs. First experiences with SGI C++ show the same and I wouldn't expect SGI to be an exception here... For this reason it seems to be very important for any product (not only for ROOT) to have libraries compiled in a way which would minimize dependence from any particular vendor. To the moment the most realistic solution is provided by GNU C++ compiler. Using GCC would also solve many portability problems - I'm not discussing the efficiency issues here. I'd even volunteer to recompile libraries with GCC, the only thing I need to know is which source codes go to which library. BTW, is it really necessary to have about 2 dozens of small libraries ? Pasha.
