Didn't the GNU people say they had to change it to be more ABI compliant

I will believe that when they upgrade their FORTRAN compiler
to be more compliant with 'the standard'.
Some standards are not worth complying with; I still have yet
to see anyone tell me exactly what the practical benefit of
doing this is.
When X (X 1) compilers comply to the same ABI standard, I can mix the
results of those compilers (if I see a benefit to do so).
As we have icc in the ports collection and the base system is compiled
with gcc and I want to be able to link to gcc compiled libs with icc, I
appreciate the effort of the involved parties to try to comply to a
common ABI standard.
That might be so over in your reality, but over in this really there is
tonns of paisn due to the changes and changing libstdc++.so major. Lets
not get into promises about ABI stability
Bye,
Alexander.
