Not entirely sure, actually. I don't remember installing it explicitly, could 
it have come as a dependency? Is there a way of finding out when an rpm was 
installed? 

I tried:
[root at peter amarok-1.4.0]# ls -la /usr/bin/gcc
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 21 Oct 31  2005 /usr/bin/gcc -> /etc/alternatives/gcc*

Any light? I'm afraid I can't remember what I was doing in October, or why 
gcc-4.1.1!

Might there be an advantage in reverting to an earlier version?

Sounds like fun :) I've yet to experiment with a kernel compile, might have to 
fix my current issues before branching out in that direction!
