Hi Paolo,

We can certainly clean up the thing later. Maybe you could add a comment somewhere summarizing what Jon wrote.
for the moment, I've installed the patch as is. It's probably better to
add some statement along those lines to user docs (and mention the
change in gcc-4.7/changes.html :-)
Btw., I just noticed the following in Oracle Studio 12.3 Beta CC(1):
-features=a
Enables/disables various C++ language features.
The following table lists the -features suboption key-
words and their meanings. The prefix no% applied to a
suboption disables that suboption.
Value Meaning
[...]
cplusplus_redef
Allow the normally pre-defined macro __cplusplus
to be redefined by a -D option on the command
line. Attempting to redefine __cplusplus with a
#define directive in source code is not allowed.
Example:
CC -features=cplusplus_redef -D__cplusplus=1 ...
The g++ compiler typically predefines the
__cplusplus macro to 1, and source code might
depend on this non-standard value. (The standard
value is 199711L for compilers implementing the
1998 C++ standard or the 2003 update. Future stan-
dards will require a larger value for the macro.)
Do not use this option unless you need to redefine
__cplusplus to 1 in order to compile code intended
for g++.
