Because there will be an ABI change in the C++ stc++ library. So, you can assume that all C++ packages upload so far are not the ones we really want to be there, we will break their binary compatibility soon, probably without transition. Although, because i386 faces the same problem, we might have a smooth transition here anyway). And it is in phase three because it will be released post woody. Of course, if something happens and 3.1 can't be released another month, we will reconsider. But from the looks of it it seems it coincedes nicely. Thanks, Marcus -- `Rhubarb is no Egyptian god.'
