Read that as: "We don't promise anything." In practice it's better than ever (some bug fixes still trivially ported from other gtk-clients). Just if there's, e.g., going to be a build breakage with newer compilers or other tools, upstream is not going to waste time on fixing those. That said, it does compile with both current gcc-snapshot and clang-15 of Debian Sid. - ML
