Atari builds

Hi guys,

although I don't use Netsurf and have no time to dig in, just out of curiosity, what do you mean by this:

There's nothing wrong with our gcc, it's still 4.6.4 and every other Atari software developer uses it. It's old, yes, but there are some technical obstacles to move beyond that version (although this may be no longer the case, see http://d-bug.mooo.com/beyondbrown/post/gcc-6/).

So what exactly burdens you? Is your new code failing to compile on 4.6.4?
