I agree. We don't need editorial comments about languages, operating
systems, or other similar things in comments. We really don't even
need editorial comments about GCC itself in comments -- although
saying "if we had this, then we could clean up that" is sometimes a
useful reminder.
But, C++ and its runtime library are what they are; it's up to us to
implement them as well as we can without judging which features we
like and which we don't.
