Just an update on the FC3 rebuild status would be extremely helpful...
While I too eagerly await their packages, I seem to recall that there was some flooding at their facility not too long ago, and that *may* be part of the problem (I don't know).
In the mean time, it seems that most fc2 src.rpm packages do compile in fc3 with just a --rebuild, and when they don't - ubuntu or linuxfromscratch or one of those often have patches that resolve the issue (gcc 34 mostly)
