Travis Vitek reopened STDCXX-602:
---------------------------------
Whoa. Had I reviewed the [versioning
policy|http://stdcxx.apache.org/versions.html] I would have remembered that 4.3
is supposed to be binary backward compatible with 4.2.x. This change is not
backward compatible at all, so it needs to be removed from 4.3. Thank you for
the gentle reminder.

> ...the function is inline and only called from std::stringbuf::str().
> Removing it (by virtue of expanding its body into str()) will reduce the
> number of symbols "exported" from the library and decrease the risk of
> breaking binary compatibility (see STDCXX-142 and the discussion thread at
> http://www.nabble.com/difference-in-exported-symbols-between-4.1.3-and-4.2.0-15d-dll%27s-%28MSVC-7.1%29-tf4641636.html)
