Why use the AT&T compiler when the gnu C compiler is available. CHeck
the copy write though - some comercial uses may not be allowed by the
gnu copywrite (like you cannot sell the results).

We have used gcc and gnu-emacs quite sucessfully on an AT&T 6386 tower
with Sys V, 3.2 rel 2.1 at the Soil Conservation Service for 9 months
now. We are not going to be selling anything of what we write and souce
is also available to users who want it, so we do not think we are
vilating their copywrite.
