Hi Seb,

I don't have a good overview of the build processes packages etc, so
keep this in mind when you  judge my statements ;)

I don't see the difference.
In general the compiler is only beta for a short period of time and in
that case it is good to use the compiler. (This assumes we do not
upgrade to a beta that is not likely to be released shortly, if that
would ever occure).

The special situation is when the beta compiler turns out to need more
work and that work takes longer time, we should downgrade to the
stable version. This could result in loss of functionality (new
features), but we can't release libraries for features that are not
supported anyway.
And I don't see why downgrading to the latest stable compiler would
take a lot of time...
