You should always try to use the latest official release. Older versions
may not have all the features GNU libc requires. The current releases of
egcs (1.0.3 and 1.1.1) should work with the GNU C library (for powerpc see

??mips Which tools should I use for MIPS?
{AJ} Either use as compiler egcs 1.1.2 (with Ralf Baechle's MIPS patches) or
the current development version of gcc 2.96 from CVS. gcc 2.95.x does not
work correctly on mips-linux.

current development version from CVS of binutils.
