The dev snapshots are for developers, and unless you're willing to
switch back and forth and find a stable one, you're on your own.
This is the usual caveat on using the nightly snapshots, which come
without *any* guarantee that it will even run!

Using terms like "gcc 2.95.2 is broken" in this case is not just unfair, 
it's grossly incorrect.
