thanks

Hello,

  This is about Bug#323133, "ICE on arm & m68k when compiling arts (in
  cp_expr_size, at cp/cp-objcp-common.c:101)".

  g++ 4.0.2-4 does indeed successfully compile (tested on paer) the
  sample tests posted in comments 1, 4, and 5 of upstream's PR#21123
  [1], but sadly it still fails to compile the sample file included in
  the original Debian bug report [2], causing the latest upload of arts,
  which uses g++-4.0 in all arches as suggested in Matthias' latest
  d-d-a post [3], fail to build in hppa [4].

    [4] http://buildd.debian.org/fetch.php?&pkg=arts&ver=1.4.3-2&arch=hppa&stamp=1132691788&file=log&as=raw

  If possible, we (Qt/KDE Maintainers) would like to know whether it'd
  make sense to wait a bit and see if this bug can be promptly
  re-solved, or we're better off just re-introducing the use of g++-3.4
  in our packages.

  Thanks in advance,
