Hi!


so there is a way to deal with it, but you need to adjust all plugins.

I'm confused -- didn't we agree that we don't need to maintain backwards
compatibility in the libgomp <-> plugins interface?  (Nathan?)

Indeed, no need to deal with version skew between libgomp and its plugins.

completely ignore it if it gives wrong version.


(We do need, and have, versioning between GCC proper and libgomp
interfaces.)

Yes. (For avoidance of doubt)
