Is this removal intended?

BTW, is version 2.95 realistic? Is it actually possible to build a reasonable 
Buildroot config even with host gcc 3.x?

Nope, that was not intentional.

Probably not, but that is a brand other topic...

Thanks! :-)

Hello,

Hollis Blanchard recently started an autobuilder on RHEL6.5, which uses
host gcc 4.4, and sent some fixes for build issues encountered with
host gcc 4.4.

So, since this is the oldest gcc version that we're testing, I would
suggest that we document this version as the minimum gcc version.

Best regards,

Thomas
