Would a 7.7.x recommended snapshot be useful to you? Tell us if you want one.

I think that could very useful, sort of like what the Linux kernel did before they stopped.

I'm never sure if building from HEAD will produce a compiler I should use for getting real work done, but I wouldn't have the same reservations concerning a 7.7.x "interim developer release".
