Well, we got GCC 3.0 ABI support off the New features list. ObjC/C++ would push us back a long ways, and I don't remember what the complications with readline4.2 were. I wouldn't be averse to a quick 5.2 release from the trunk, otherwise. There's a few things it would be nice to have done first - I have more C++ fixes, and the profiling patch has not AFAICR been committed yet. But there should be time. -- Daniel Jacobowitz Carnegie Mellon University MontaVista Software Debian GNU/Linux Developer
