I think I qualify as one of those "serious users" :) I run
Debian stable, which tends to be pretty antiquated (and provide
cause for Tony to give me a little friendly grief/chiding/goading
for running such old versions ;-) It was a big deal for me when
a dist-upgrade moved me from 6.x to 7.x, and I still have some
old machines that get nothing but security updates with 6.x on
them. I've never done anything more compiling/C-related than
read Tony's excellent build-instructions.
