staying at 0.99.2 can't be a serious option when there are attacks in 
the wild for weeks now targeting the issues adressed with 0.99.3

anyways:
you post is crap because you don't point to any refereneces (url to said 
patch and son on) nor talking what is a "newer GCC" in your point of 
view and especially in the context of the problem

why not use distribution packages whci seems to can handel the issues 
properly:
