vtl 2.0 and gcc3.2.2? (or icc8.0)?

I seem to be having compiler problems with vtl 2.0
(build 348).

When I compile my code with gcc3.2.2 or ICC8.0
with gcc3.2 compatibility. (With the -g option)
I get the following when profiling my code:

+Other32+ vtl.bin
Instructions Retired 93.13% 18789 52609200000
Clockticks 50.30% 26423 73984400000

If I recompile my code with gcc 2.96 I get the
following out of a vtl sampling session:

prman prman
Instructions Retired 86.89% 15995 44786000000 /home/wlw/rmanE/built/linux.gcc296.x86.debug/bin/prman
Clockticks 42.94% 32037 89703600000

However I cannot run real evaluations of my code
built with gcc2.96, since it pulls in a lot of plugins
build with gcc3.2.2 in "real-life". Is there anything
I can do to get vtl2.0 to work with/recognize my gcc3.2.2
code?

Thanks,

It should work. I would look to see what the default debug info formatis in gcc 3.2.2and try the other one. That is, if it is stabs, try dwarf or vice versa.
If you can't get it working, please feel free to submit an issue at Intel Premier Support.
