I have seen in the source code the check for the ARM gcc 3.2.x compiler, but it does not catch it: the ecos and application compiles succeed.
Or should it give a warning? (then I never noticed it)

I have arm-elf-gcc v3.2.1.
At Mind, if I remember well they have arm-elf-gcc v3.2.2, and this version is not broken.
