Troy,

gcc is just an application.  You don't need to reboot.

Subject: Gcc patch

Ok, I know that we have just about beat this topic to death, but I have
read the links and I can't find the answer to this.  I have patched
tzdata on all my servers and rebooted.  Now this gcc patch comes out,
and I don't have another scheduled downtime before Sunday.
 
So my question is, after I run "up2date gcc" do I *HAVE* to reboot?  Is
there a service that I have to restart? Or does gcc read its config at
run time?
 
Thanks-Troy

Bug Fix Advisory -
RHBA-2007:0080-7--------------------------------------------------------
----------------------Summary:gcc bug fix update
 
Updated GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) packages that use system timezone
data in libgcj instead of providing libgcj's own
 
Description:The gcc packages include C, C++, Java, Fortran 77, Objective
C, and Ada95 GNU compilers and related support libraries.
 
These packages provide updated timezone information for libgcj.
 
libgcj previously used its hardcoded simple timezone information. This
information was not kept up to date with the system timezone data
updates and did not handle historical daylight saving
information.Instead, it used the latest applicable daylight saving time
changing rule for each timezone as of the time the gcc release branch
had been created.
 
These updated packages read the timezone information data from system
tzdata package files and are able to handle daylight saving time
transitions even for past years.
 
For full details regarding all fixed bugs, refer to the package
changelog as well as the specified list of bug reports from bugzilla.
 
All users of gcc should upgrade to these updated packages, which resolve
these issues.
