But the "bad" news is it incorporates more changes to the C++ ABI. This =
means that applications compiled with the 3.1, 3.0, and 2.95 will not =
work with the libstdc++ compiled when installing 3.2.=20
The "good" news is that they promise to do their best to never break ABI =
compatibility again. And at this point "no known differences between the =
C++ ABI implemented in GCC and the multi-vendor standard." The ABI =
changes in this release were needed to be compliant with the standard.=20
