I strongly believe that using our compilers would be a "bad" thing
for the initial port. Requiring someone to buy IDO inorder to compile
a free OS seems like the "wrong" thing to me. Now, if we (SGI) decide
to ship a Linux version, then yes, using our compilers is OK. Let's
just make sure that the port is dependant on our compilers in any way
at this point. (I doubt that's what you were suggesting. I just want
to make it clear before we get started.)
