Can we kill gcc3 and gcc34 from extra? We used to need them for qemu, 
but that's fixed, so they're useless. Objections?
Move it to AUR. We don't need these anymore.
virtualbox recommendation are gcc3.3 or later except for the GCC 4.0.x 
series). GCC 4.3.3 is recommended.
i've tried to compile with gcc 4.4.0 and is failing.
i suggest to move it to community because there are severals packages[1] 
that have in makedepends gcc34.

If you want this, let this go to aur-general. I am removing the packages 
from extra now, but I'll leave the PKGBUILDs in SVN trunk for now, so 
any TU who wants to adopt this or any AUR user who wants to add this can 
access them.
-1 from me 
        
        
        IMHO I would like it to see them stay in extra
        
        For example : imlib which has errors compiling with gcc-4.4.0
        compiles fine with gcc-3.4  
        
        just fixup the PKGBUILD like this:
        
        # $Id: PKGBUILD 356 2008-04-18 22:56:27Z aaron $
        # Maintainer: dorphell <dorphell@archlinux.org>
        # Committer: Judd Vinet <jvinet@zeroflux.org>
        pkgname=imlib
        pkgver=1.9.15
        pkgrel=4
        pkgdesc="General image handling library for X11 and Gtk"
        arch=(i686 x86_64)
        url="http://www.enlightenment.org/Libraries/Imlib.html"
        license=('GPL')
        depends=(gtk libungif libpng libtiff libsm)
        makedepends=(gcc34)
        source=(http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/imlib/1.9/$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.bz2
                debian-bug448360.patch CAN-2004-1026.patch
        aclocal-fixes.patch)
        options=(!libtool)
        md5sums=('7db987e6c52e4daf70d7d0f471238eae'
                 '5f9da697934b6bd3b497ac9160ce4f5c'
                 'b273d36aa60adbfaacaf6062234e4c1f'
                 '33b832f0dc6c9723cd0dfe9c8d0a6797')
        
        build() {
          cd $startdir/src/$pkgname-$pkgver
          patch -Np1 -i ${startdir}/src/debian-bug448360.patch || return
        1
          patch -Np1 -i ${startdir}/src/CAN-2004-1026.patch || return 1
          patch -Np0 -i ${startdir}/src/aclocal-fixes.patch || return 1
          ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --enable-shm
          CC=/usr/bin/gcc-3.4 make || return 1
          make DESTDIR=$startdir/pkg install
        }
        
        and it works
