missing things in c++/gcc

[Jim Michaels]

* ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/pub/gnu/gcc/ does not contain gcc 6.0.1 though 
it has been released. maybe people are still working on it? or it's been 
forgotten.
* try compiling c++ file that #include's string and iostream with 
-std=c++14 and see what happens. tons of errors.
* basic_string.h, basic_string.tcc less than optimal code. why not 
include operator- for a string diff? 2 ways you can implement it, so why 
not provide both?
* where is std::string::icompare, std::string::ifind and why is there no 
operator== (same as std::string::compare)?
* where is std::string::toupper() and std::string::tolower, and the 
other string.h ops?
* why does cstring not include all of string.h?
* why does cmath not include all of math.h?

a lot of these hurt the developer who wants to stay with c++.
thanks for listening. they are rhetorical questions that are suggestions 
for implementation.
