Uhm, and the fix is to break standards compliance so that really broken
stuff works? I don't think this is right, I rather think the right way to
go would be to fix the really broken things. Also, I doubt that gcc 3.00,
once it comes out, will work with broken sources which don't work with gcc
2.96. Ie. these broken sources would have to be fixed anyway - so, why not
start right now?
