It's roughly equivalent.  CVSup may send less information (and hence be
more efficient) than rsync since it understands CVS repository structure,
and it produces slightly nicer diagnostic output, but for the most part
either are as good.

Depends on how you look at it.
With DWARF2, and my overload resolution patch, this should work perfectly
fine.
With STABS, you need a patch i'm working on as we speak (It works, i'm just
trying to see if their is anything i'm missing).

Assuming mangling and everything is working fine, namespaces should have no
problem.
If they do, i'll make them have no problems.
