I strongly disagree. g++2.8/egcs + libstdc++2.8 is the first version of the
GNU C++ development environment that comes close to supporting ANSI C++;
previous version lacked or at best had only partial support for modern C++
constructs like templates, exception handling, standard template library
(see http://egcs.cygnus.com/c++features.html).
