Debian Woody also has gcc 2.95 enabled as default so those still stuck on that will need to change their setup. Agree with changing it though as using gcc 2.95 on Woody broke lots of things at times...

Those people should probably upgrade to Sarge anyway...
However, Woody isn't even 2.6 compatible, is it?

Yes, it was 2.6 compatible when it was released. 2.4 was still the
default, but I believe there were boot floppies for 2.6.

not completely, if you run a 2.6 kernel on woody there are several other packages that you need to change out (procps is the one that annoyed me)

Frankly, anyone trying to use 2.6.13+ or so on woody is almost certainly in for a world of hurt anyway. Woody users are by far best off sticking with the 2.4 series.
