To quote an earlier message in that thread, "that's not the way it works". I believe that bolting new features onto 3.3 at this point was not in the game plan, although the 3.3 release manager can decide for himself of course.It doesn't fix any regression. The issue here is usability. People have complained that gcc 3.3 is not used by Linux developers:

Both SuSE and Red Hat gcc 3.3 branches are much more usable on Linux than gcc 3.3. If Linux developers want to use PNI, gcc 3.3 is useless and gcc 3.4 is unstable. What choices do they have?
