After some pain I have managed to patch and build openoffice-1.0.1-3 on RH 7.3 using gcc-2.96-112. It *seems* to work, more-or-less. You don 't want to build it -- the last build (of perhaps 10 attempts!) took 8.5 hours.
Unfortunately, I don 't have a convenient high-bandwidth location to stuff the RPMS. Any takers?
I 've also got a gcc3-3.2-1 for 7.3
Should I start a SourceForge project?
