The 3.2/3.1 binary compatibilities affect only C++ code.
The intent is for 3.3 to be binary-compatible with 3.2 for C++ code. As
for libstdc++, the story might be different depending on whether your
platform supports symbol versioning, which is the approach being used to
allow for development while keeping things binary-compatible. Perhaps
the libstdc++ developers can say more on that one.
Of course there are no warranties for any of this.
