On further exploration, it looks like -fhonor-std -fsquangle will
actually work with CVS libstdc++, meaning the library will build and the
there are no new failures in the testsuite.
I am hesitant to actually ship the next snapshot out with it, and here's why:
it requires a bunch of work (see previous email) to get up and running.
I am torn between having namespaces enabled, which is nice, and making
the install/build/use processes for v-3 even more complicated then they
are now.
So my question, taking the form of a straw poll is: Are people able to
convert to namespaces using the HOWTO sent out earlier? Is it easy?
Hard? Hmm.
Right now I would like to do the following:
1) default configure is the same
2) everything will work with -fhonor-std for people willing to do the tweaks
3) after the release try to make a script, maybe throw in some autoconf
hackery that will build with namespaces enabled, perhaps
./configure --enable-namespaces ....
thoughts?
