I've heard enough.  

This conversation is degrading into name-calling and is generating
ill-will, and there's no place for that on this list.  It is certainly
appropriate to discuss whether or not G++ should complain about `long
long', but not in this manner.

libstdc++ V3 needs to have a mode (and it probably does!) where `long
long' isn't use for compilers that don't accept it -- since they don't
need to at this point.  And g++ should probably accept it with a
warning, rather than issuing an error.  At least, that's my two cents;
I'd like to hear Jason's opinion.

Thanks,
