Written by Michael Larabel in GNU on 3 August 2016 at 09:00 AM EDT. Add A Comment

Version 4.9.4 of the GNU Compiler Collection is now available and it closes out the GCC 4.9 compiler series.

GCC 4.9.4 is the last planned release to the GCC 4.9 series for those still using the older 4.x releases rather than GCC 5 or GCC 6.

GCC 4.9.4 ships with fixes for a known total of at least 159 bugs. That's about it for this 4.9.4 release is just bug-fixing.
