------- Comment #6 from mmitchel at gcc dot gnu dot org 2007-12-02 21:25 ------- I disagree.
If we bring out a new feature in the compiler, then that new feature should be robust. We do not want to tell users that one of the great new things about GCC 4.3 is C++ 200x support, only to have them find that it tends to crash when they make a mistake in their code. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=34051
