-Compilers that are known to compile LyX are egcs 1.1.x, gcc 2.95.x and
-later, and Digital C++ version 6.1 and later. Please tell us your
-experience with other compilers. It is _not_ possible to compile LyX
-with gcc 2.7.x and 2.8.x, and this is not likely to change in the
-future.
-
-Note that, contrary to LyX 1.0.x, LyX 1.3.x makes great use of C++
-Standard Template Library (STL); this means that gcc users will have
-to install the relevant libstdc++ library to be able to compile this
-version.
