Just to be clear -- we are already way past that point.  

The number of explicit instantiations in V3 is testament to the pain.

It is painful to use templates on AIX with G++.  I don't think it is
particularly more painful than in GCC 2.95 -- but there is a lot more
use of templates in the library, so that makes these issues more
noticable.
