Whoa, you wish :-)

Honors go to Marc Espie here:
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2000-12/msg00636.html

But there've been several other mails about gcc 5.0 since then, too.

Maybe LTO is user-visible and lord-knows-what-breaking enough for a
major version number bump 5.0.  Caret diagnostics could piggyback on
that :-)
