I don't agree at all. I *never* use gcc on HPUX, mainly because I
find
the HP ANSI C compiler to produce far smaller and faster code while
being just as reliable (this is HP92453-01 A.10.32.13 HP C Compiler
versus gcc-2.7.2.1 - I keep intending to build myself an egcs).
I don't use MULE, though.
All the problems I mentioned are MULE-related.
For example, XEmacs compiled by HP's cc doesn't handle regular
expressions including Japanese text and some parentheses but XEmacs
compiled by gcc does. This is one of the worst problems for me and
for most Japanese.
I don't know the reason precisely, but I suspect HP's cc. Because its
functionality is extended to be able to handle Japanese text when LANG
is set to ja_JP.SJIS or ja_JP.eucJP, this cause the problems of XEmacs
and so on. HP's cc and C codes related to REGEXP don't seem to be cut
out for each other, maybe.
Therefore I don't use HP's cc ONLY when I compile XEmacs and GNU
softwares.
As far as you use XEmacs in not-Japanese environment with no MULE,
XEmacs compiled by HP's cc (acc) is reliable.
