enormous changes at the last minute [std::]



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?
