You shouldn't use snapshots unless you need to. Just follow the
instructions on the web page and it will tell you what to use, and what
patches to apply. Only deviate from that if you know what you are doing!
Snapshots are less stable than the stable released versions. In other
words, where possible, use binutils 2.10, gcc 2.95.2 and gdb/insight 5.0.
But the instructions will tell you this.
