Hi!
I think you're right. In some cases it's quite annoying to use gcc-2.96 - especially if a compilation fails although it should work. I'm pretty into Linux but I've to get some other work done so I don't want to bother about unnecessary version changes.
The same with ext3 - it's not in the kernel. That means in 7.2 & ext3 you cannot just download the current kernel and compile it.
Unfortunately there are some parallels to a specific software company most Linux users try to keep distance from ........ make proprietary changes and bind the user!!! But that's economy.
