Certainly. Use common sense.

Not quite. We've got a number of PRs for windows specific things. But in 
general true.

That _is_ almost everything else :-)

I've got an old mips/irix machine, but it took 3 days to bootstrap 3.2.3, 
and 3.3 didn't build at all...

We're already pretty well staffed in the C++ area. You're doing great in 
others. So why generate overlap :-)

Can you send me preprocessed sources for the 3.4 failure, and how that one
