I haven't checked g++ 3.3.x, but I have no reason to doubt you. I think you
grasp the situation fine: at least for a while, g++ did not follow the ABI. Now
it does. It's a problem. Any time you don't follow the ABI, it's a problem.
It causes binary incompatibility, and forces people to recompile their code.
People who don't have the source code are out of luck.
I'm not sure what question you are asking, if indeed you are asking a question
at all. I'm not sure what else there is to say about the situation.
