Agent Controller and related libraries (e.g., Java Profiler) are indeed
compiled using old compilers (VS6 for Windows, GCC 2.96 or 3.2 for
Linux). The main reason is compatibility with dependent libraries and
build environments of most TPTP committers. If you need to generate
binaries with newer compilers, please download the source code (that's
the beauty of being open-sourced!) and follow the build instructions in
the relevant readme files. Note, however, that AC has many dependencies
so it may not be a straightforward process.
If you have any specific questions regarding building AC and other libs,
please post them here and we'll try to help.
Regards,
Asaf

OK,
so we actually compiled the CVS files with VS8 and GCC 4.1 and it
works more or less fine (for VS8 we needed to write the .sln file
and for GCC we had to fix Bug 213360). The only "old" stuff we
had to use was Java 1.5 instead of 1.6 (because of the profiler
issue you mentioned).
Regards,
Jochen.
