Good question.  Nothing so old, is the short answer I think.

The ghc I'm using is from Manuel's ghc-5.02.2-1 rpm (built
on RH72 I believe) is probably with gcc-2.96.

I am building green-card and xlib with gcc from cvs!

        gcc version 3.1 20020131 (Red Hat Linux Rawhide 3.1-0.20)

Actually I wanted to build with gcc296, but it (rightly?)
doesn't seem to like "-o" and "-c" in the same command:

ghc -ldl -package-name greencard  -package lang    -fvia-C -cpp -fglasgow-exts -package lang -fno-prune-tydecls -c StdDIS.hs -o StdDIS.o
gcc296 -ldl -package-name greencard  -package lang    -fvia-C -cpp -fglasgow-exts -package lang -fno-prune-tydecls -c StdDIS_stub_ffi.c -o StdDIS_stub_ffi.o
gcc296: cannot specify -o with -c or -S and multiple compilations
